Duke women's basketball play-by-play announcer Chris Edwards is giving fans an inside look at some of his memorable basketball moments throughout his four years as the Voice of the Blue Devils. The events highlighted during this series are not meant to be a complete listing of all memorable accomplishments, but a sampling of great moments in Edwards' words.
To say that
Kyra Lambert was the heart of the Duke Women's Basketball team during her time in Durham would be an understatement considering all she went through return to the court to be with her teammates for one final season.
Lambert, who endured multiple knee surgeries, rehabilitation and obstacles, was given the green light to return to the court as the Blue Devils opened the 2019-20 season against High Point.
Duke won the game, but the big story was Lambert, who nailed her first a shot attempt from 65 feet away as the first quarter buzzer sounded. The shot, which ended up making ESPN's SportsCenter, culminated her long journey back to prove that hard work does pay off.
