Duke basketball fans held their breath on Saturday as star freshman Cooper Flagg exited the first half of the game against Florida State with an apparent injury. Flagg, who has been a key contributor for the Blue Devils this season, left the court midway through the first half after appearing to tweak something during a defensive play. He was seen limping as he made his way to the bench and was later escorted to the locker room for further evaluation.
Flagg’s presence has been instrumental for Duke, with his athleticism and versatility helping the team stay competitive in a tough ACC schedule. Prior to leaving the game, Flagg had already made an impact with his usual strong defense and hustle plays. However, his early exit immediately raised concerns about his status moving forward.
At halftime, Duke’s coaching staff did not provide an official update on Flagg’s condition, but reports indicated that he was being closely examined by the medical team. The Blue Devils will hope the injury is minor as they continue to push toward postseason play.
Fans and teammates alike are hoping for good news, as Flagg’s health will be crucial for Duke’s success the rest of the season.
