Cooper Flagg’s Standout Performance Propels Duke to 13th Straight Win

Flagg scored 24 points as Duke overcame second-half struggles to defeat Wake Forest and remain undefeated in ACC play.

Cooper Flagg led Duke with 24 points, seven rebounds, and six assists in a 63-56 victory over Wake Forest on Saturday.
Duke extended its winning streak to 13 games and maintained a perfect 9-0 record in ACC play, improving to 17-2 overall this season.
The Blue Devils switched to an uncharacteristic zone defense late in the game, which helped them stifle Wake Forest's offense during a crucial stretch.
