Duke freshman Cooper Flagg is unlikely to play in the ACC tournament semifinals due to a sprained left ankle, according to coach Jon Scheyer. Flagg suffered the injury during a quarterfinal win against Georgia Tech. X-rays showed no fracture, but Flagg is experiencing swelling. He had to leave the game after rolling his ankle while attempting a rebound. Duke also lost Maliq Brown to a dislocated shoulder during the same game. Brown is a key player for the team, which was on an eight-game winning streak and projected as a top NCAA tournament seed.
