Duke completed a 19-1 run through the ACC by overwhelming North Carolina in Chapel Hill on Saturday night, all but locking up a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Blue Devils trailed by six points with 13 minutes to play before going on a 29-10 run spurred on by stifling defense.
Cooper Flagg, as usual, was fantastic. The freshman phenom scored 15 points, grabbed nine rebounds, dished out six assists and blocked four shots in his second taste of the rivalry. With about 90 seconds remaining and the outcome already decided, Flagg put the ball on the deck and drove 40 feet for an uncontested slam to put an exclamation point on the victory.
