Cooper Flagg and the East team won the McDonald’s All-American game in a fourth-quarter comeback on Tuesday night, outscoring the West by six in the final frame for the 88-86 victory.
The West led 44-37 at the halfway point, but the East trimmed the lead to 66-62 after three quarters.
Flagg, a five-star Duke signee and the top recruit in the Class of 2024, finished the game with eight points, six rebounds, and three assists. He added one block and one steal apiece.
His high school teammate, Derik Queen, led the game with 23 points on 10/15 shooting. Queen is committed to Maryland.
Isaiah Evans, a fellow Duke signee and another five-star prospect, finished the game, played 20 minutes and added four rebounds and an assist, but he missed all six of his shots.
Flagg and Evans lead a dominant 2024 recruiting class for the Blue Devils, which currently boasts four five-stars and six players inside 247Sports’ top 51.
