Monday was a great day for Duke Basketball and the Brotherhood, as Cooper Flagg won the NBA Rookie of the Year award over former Blue Devil teammate Kon Knueppel.
Flagg won 412-386. VJ Edgecombe came in third, with 96 points.
It was crazy to watch Flagg dominate players who, in some cases, were 10-15 years older than he was. His future seems limitless, and that’s true for Knueppel as well. The conversation around that guy has changed dramatically. Remember when he was seen as a stretch at the #4 pick? Not so much anymore.
Congratulations to both guys. They’re great representatives of Duke.
