Cooper Flagg is pretty decent at basketball.<\/p>\n
On Friday night, Flagg’s Montverde Academy (from Montverde, Florida and No. 1 in the USA TODAY HSS Super 25<\/a>) played Long Island Lutheran from Brookville, New York (No. 7 in the USA TODAY rankings)<\/p>\n The game, at Hofstra University was a showcase event for two of the top programs in the nation. And Flagg didn’t disappoint, at least not early on.<\/p>\n The nation’s top player<\/a>, Flagg is a five-star forward and a Duke basketball commit. In recent weeks, there has been some buzz that he might lose the No. 1 overall recruit status to Ace Bailey, a Rutgers basketball<\/a> commit.<\/p>\n The argument is that Bailey’s athleticism potentially could give him a higher ceiling than Flagg<\/a>. Flagg, however, is not disappointing against Long Island Lutheran.<\/p>\n Playing on national television on Friday night, Flagg has eight points, four rebounds and five assists at halftime. Oh, and one opponent he put on the floor.<\/p>\n Check out this move:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n THATS DISGUSTING FROM COOPER FLAGG pic.twitter.com\/F9R8VBxzRl<\/a><\/p>\n\n
