So there's no great reason for Cooper Flagg to play Friday against North Carolina in the ACC Tournament semifinals one day after spraining his left ankle in a win over Georgia Tech. A potential Flagg absence would be good for UNC and likely best for a Duke program with eyes on a bigger prize.

Durham, North Carolina let out a collective gasp when Duke basketball star Cooper Flagg was spotted in a wheelchair on Thursday. The 18-year-old phenom suffered an ankle sprain in the first half of an ACC Tournament quarterfinals matchup versus Georgia Tech and was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game.

We know what Flagg can do but with Brown, UNC found out first hand on Saturday. When Brown entered the game in the second half with UNC up seven, Duke went on a big run. He essentially took RJ Davis out of the game with his length and he's an issue on switches for guards.
