And just like that, we're back. The 2024-25 men's college basketball season began Monday, as some of the top teams in America, impactful transfers and new faces made their debuts. We could have called this Cooper Flagg Day, too.
The 6-foot-9 freshman phenom and five star recruit for Duke, whom LeBron James recently called the future of the NBA, has officially arrived. But those watching Flagg's first collegiate matchup against Maine didn't see the fireworks they had anticipated -- before halftime, at least. Until 3:20 left in the first half, when Flagg took flight and rose above the rim for the first time.
