Flagg's lucrative social media career, which began when he was in high school, has helped to provide a very comfortable home for him and his family, who all relocated to Greensboro, NC, when he began his freshman season at Duke.

After declaring for the 2025 NBA draft earlier this week, Duke star freshman Cooper Flagg is expected to be the league's next big thing. ESPN's Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo released their updated draft big board, and Flagg maintained his position in the No. 1 spot.

Rutgers went just 8-12 in Big Ten play during the 2024-25 college basketball season while finishing with an overall record of 15-17. The Scarlet Knights also struck out early in the Big Ten tournament, exiting right away in the first round after a loss to the USC Trojans.
