After another strong week from Duke basketball superstar [autotag]Cooper Flagg[/autotag], the freshman superstar swept ACC Player of the Week and ACC Rookie of the Week honors on Monday.
Flagg achieved that same double back on November 25 after he notched 24 points in a road victory over Arizona, and he now joins a short and esteemed list of players to do so twice in one season.
The crazy part? He joins four other Blue Devils.
[autotag]Zion Williamson[/autotag], Marvin Bagley III, Vernon Carey Jr., and Jabari Parker each pulled off the conference double multiple times. It’s worth mentioning that Flagg could be far from done too, as the season is no where close to being done.
Against Virginia Tech and SMU, two games the Blue Devils won by a combined 50 points, Flagg was a star with 24.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.5 blocked shots per game. He shot 16-of-26 (61.5%) from the field, 4-of-6 (66.7%) from 3-point range and a perfect 12-of-12 from the free-throw line.
The Blue Devils face the Pittsburgh Panthers on Tuesday before a weekend game against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
