Why didn't Duke bring Cooper Flagg to the 2024 ACC Tipoff?

"WRAL Triangle and Two" hosts Mark Bergin and Louis Fernandez discuss why Duke head coach Jon Scheyer didn't bring Cooper Flagg to the 2024 ACC Tipoff event in Charlotte.

Fernandez pointed out that Duke didn't bring Zion Williamon in his lone season with the Blue Devils.

Duke opted to bring Tyrese Proctor and Caleb Foster instead.

Bergin explained that he thinks Duke should have brought Flagg because of his marketability. Flagg more than held his own against the star-studded Team USA roster in pre-Olympic training camp.

Last, the guys talked about the potential of another freshman in Khaman Maluach.
