NEWARK, N.J. -- Duke's Cooper Flagg put on a skills clinic and overcame an onslaught from Arizona and Caleb Love, finishing with 30 points, six rebounds, seven assists and three blocks Thursday night in a 100-93 NCAA tournament victory that pulled the Blue Devils within one win of the Final Four.u200b
Flagg, long over the ankle injury that sidelined him earlier this month, did enough to prevent Love, a thorn in Duke's side for five years, from ruining another Blue Devils season.
Love finished with 35 points, one short of his career high, including a streak of 12 straight for his Wildcats (24-13) during a ferocious second-half run that cut a 19-point deficit to as little as five with 1:56 left.
