Interviewer: Cooper, first off, congratulations on committing to Duke! It’s an exciting time for you, but also for the program. What made you decide that Duke was the right place for you? Cooper Flagg: Thank you, it’s definitely an exciting time. Honestly, it just felt like the right fit. From the moment I visited, I could feel the tradition and the level of commitment there. Duke isn’t just about winning basketball games—it’s about building something bigger than that. The culture, the coaching staff, and the players all have this shared mentality of striving for greatness. I want to be part of that. I want to leave a legacy, not just for myself but for the program. Interviewer: That’s great to hear! You mentioned building a legacy. How do you see yourself fitting into the history of a program like Duke, which has produced so many NBA legends? Cooper Flagg: It’s humbling, honestly. Duke has such a rich history, and so many great players have come through there, from Zion [Williamson] to Jason [Tatum] and beyond. But I’m not focused on being compared to anyone else. I want to create my own path, my own legacy. I want to contribute to the team’s success, help bring home a national title, and hopefully set a standard for the next group of players who come through.
