No. 2 Duke may have topped Georgia Tech 78–70 in an ACC tournament quarterfinal Thursday, but it lost its centerpiece in forward Cooper Flagg.
Flagg sprained his ankle during the contest, ending his afternoon with just two points and four rebounds. Blue Devils coach Jon Scheyer confirmed the nature of the injury after the game, and told reporters including Sports Illustrated’s Bryan Fischer that Flagg was unlikely to play again in the ACC tournament.
