Nick Potter - High performance at Duke basketball

Nick Potter is the director of High Performance and Sports Science at Duke university men's basketball.  His role involves monitoring player health, performance, recovery, and wellness with key team personnel to ensure optimal athlete individualization and holistic development. 

Nick works hand and glove with one of the most legendary coaches in all of basketball in coach K - Mike Krzyzewski and has put countless players through is hands, many of which like Zion Williamson, Jason Tatum and Kyrie Irving to name but a few, have gone on to become NBA superstars.

Here, Nick gives us a look behind the curtain of one of the most impressive coaching and performance environments in college sports in the States.

Also, I've set up this podcast with a dual purpose in mind, firstly to provide some thoughtful debate for coaches, but I've also linked up with Temple Street Children's Hospital in Dublin, to try and help raise much needed money for them.

Covid 19 continues to have a hugely negative impact on their ability to raise funds in the ways they normally do, so if you found some value in the podcast, it would be great if you could donate anything, no matter how small to Temple Street Children's Foundation through the link here: https://bit.ly/39857sS
