After a summer that saw him scrimmage against—and wow—some of the best basketball players in the world, Cooper Flagg is now impressing against some of the best college players in the nation as a freshman for Duke. And the 18-year-old Flagg has quickly become must-see television, whether it be for his impressive ability to stuff the stat sheet on a nightly basis, or for his highlight-reel poster dunk.
And Flagg has caught the attention of a Blue Devils legend in the process—none other than five-time national champion Mike Krzyzewski, who, during an episode of his show Basketball & Beyond With Coach K, declared the freshman the “best player in the country.”
