Duke basketball: 5 games you have to see in person this season
By Matt Johnson
All Duke basketball games will be quite a spectacle, but several stand out.
I shouldn’t complain. The fact that Duke basketball even had a season last year was a blessing in itself. In the troubled times of COVID, having a positive outlet — well, mostly positive — was a sight for sore souls.
While the Duke Blue Devils weren’t exactly pleasant to watch last year, they still provided entertainment week in and week out. This year, however, will add a vital element that the Dukies sorely missed during their 2020-21 run.
The Cameron Crazies; yes, watching those nerds dance to Cascada is one of like five things that bring adult Matt joy anymore.
With that joyous note in mind, I give you fine folks the five games you should spring to go and see this season. This list is in no particular order, and as I write this in late August, the conference schedule hasn’t been posted yet. Some games are extremely safe to assume are happening, though (looking your way, Carolina).
