Cooper Flagg Leads Duke into Elite Eight with Stellar NCAA Tournament Performances

The freshman phenom continues to dominate as Duke prepares to face Alabama for a Final Four berth.

Cooper Flagg's 30-point, all-around performance in the Sweet 16 against Arizona has solidified his status as the consensus top pick for the 2025 NBA Draft.
Flagg is leading Duke in all major statistical categories this season, including points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks, showcasing his versatility and impact.
Duke's Elite Eight matchup against Alabama on March 29 will test their defense against Alabama's record-breaking three-point shooting from the Sweet 16.
Flagg's ability to influence games through defense and playmaking, in addition to scoring, has drawn comparisons to legends like Larry Bird and Kevin Durant.
Head coach Jon Scheyer has challenged Flagg to take on an even more dominant role as Duke aims for its first Final Four appearance since 2022.
