Sunday night's meeting in Las Vegas between Flagg's Montverde Academy (Fla.) and the Boozer brothers' Christopher Columbus High School (Fla.), an eventual 83-77 Montverde win in the championship game of the GEICO Top Flight Invite, was no different.
This time, the production levels of all three potential Blue Devil prizes were off the charts, particularly in the scoring column, as they combined for 68 of the contest's 160 total points. They were the top three scorers.
Cooper Flagg, who reigns at No. 1 overall on the 247Sports 2024 Composite and is gearing up for an official visit with the Blue Devils beginning Friday, finished with 20 points, 11 rebounds, seven assists, four blocks, and two steals. He shot 8-for-13 from the field and 4-for-5 at the foul line.
