Episode Details

On the latest episode of the Locked On NBA Big Board Podcast, Rafael Barlowe sits down with one of the 2025 draft’s biggest enigmas—Cedric Coward. Taped last week in Chicago following a post-workout interview at the NBA Combine, Coward discusses his meteoric rise from Division III Willamette to Eastern Washington, and eventually to Duke via the transfer portal. A strong showing in Chicago, including lights-out shooting and impressive measurements, has vaulted him into the first-round conversation —despite logging just six games this season at Washington State. In this episode, Coward details his day-to-day in the pre-draft process, how he's preparing for the next level, and shares a powerful message for anyone chasing a nontraditional path to the league.
