Cooper Flagg’s Exit Proves Too Much for Duke to Overcome as ESPN Deepens Jon Scheyer’s Misery

Just a couple of days ago, Duke Blue Devils’ superstar freshman, Cooper Flagg, made a huge announcement about his future. The 18-year-old Wooden Award winner and long-presumed No. 1 pick declared for this season’s NBA Draft on Monday. While the future seems bright, it has cast a shadow over the program run by Jon Scheyer. That’s because, according to ESPN’s latest NCAA basketball team rankings, Duke has fallen to the 11th spot, with Purdue at the No. 1 spot. Meanwhile, the team that eliminated Duke, the Houston Cougars, are second on the list. This has made things worse for Jon Scheyer and Co., who are already eyeing a massive roster overhaul ahead of the new season.
