The first team across the nation has a major March insanity horror.
The No. 1 pick predicted in the 2025 NBA Draft, Freshman Phenom Cooper Flag had to be helped by the locker room after suffering what appeared to be an ankle injury early in the first half of Duke's ACC quarterfinal match against Georgia Tech in Charlotte.
Flag landed awkwardly in under three minutes with the Yellow Jackets leading 26-17 with a defensive rebound.
He had to help his legs and then put his arms around his teammates before walking to the bench.
Flag eventually left the court for the locker room and did not return.
He was seen in a wheelchair taken to see a doctor. According to social media images.
Top seeded Blue Devils Trail 8 seed Georgia Tech, 31-26, halfway.
Flag only has two points in one of the 7 shoots, including Deep's 0-to-3.
