March had been a challenging month for Duke star and top NBA prospect Cooper Flagg, who suffered an ankle sprain in the opening game of the ACC Tournament. However, everything changed on Thursday night.
Flagg delivered a sensational performance in Duke’s Sweet 16 showdown against Arizona, racking up 30 points, seven assists, six rebounds, and three blocks in the Blue Devils’ 100-93 victory over the Wildcats. His dominant display not only reaffirmed his status as a top NBA draft prospect but also showcased his versatility as one of the most complete players in modern college basketball. Flagg became just the second player in NCAA history to record at least 30 points, five assists, five rebounds, and three blocks since blocks became an official stat in 1986.
Even the next morning, fans were still buzzing about Flagg’s incredible performance.
