From RotoWire:
"The Blue Devils cruised to an easy win over Virginia, and one of the big reasons behind this massive win was the all-around stat line provided by Flagg. The star freshman has been one of the best players in the nation this season, and the numbers back him up as the potential No. 1 pick ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft. He's averaging 18.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.2 blocks per game since the beginning of February."
