Duke freshman star Cooper Flagg made history in his team's 86-78 win over Notre Dame last weekend. Flagg set a single-game ACC freshman scoring record and finished with a career-high 42 points in Duke's 10th consecutive win.

After a hot week and Johni Broome's injury, Cooper Flagg has emerged as a heavy favorite to win the John Wooden Award.

The 6-foot-9 freshman forward scored 42 points in Saturday’s victory over Notre Dame to set an ACC freshman single-game record. He went 11 of 14 from the floor, making 4 of 6 3-pointers, and hit 16 of 17 foul shots — with the 16 made free throws standing as a Duke freshman record.

Duke’s Cooper Flagg of Newport, Maine — named The Associated Press men’s college basketball national player of the week earlier Tuesday after scoring an ACC freshman record 42 points against Notre Dame — had 13 points, seven rebounds and six assists.

That's not all. Flagg also became the first Duke basketball talent to record at least 35 points, five rebounds, and five assists in any game since his head coach, Jon Scheyer, dropped 36 points, eight rebounds, and nine assists in a home win over Gardner-Webb on Dec. 15, 2009.

Cooper Flagg, the projected No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, set a Duke basketball record in the Blue Devils' 10th straight win.

After setting a conference scoring record, Flagg prepares for a week that will include a game at Boston College.
