Just over a week ago, dreams became reality for a number of NBA Draft prospects — including former Duke Blue Devils stars Kon Knueppel and Cooper Flagg, who were not only teammates, but also roommates in Durham. Both were selected in the top five picks.
Now, with NBA Summer League set to begin in the coming days, Knueppel took to Instagram on Wednesday to post a collage of photos from the whirlwind week after being selected No. 4 overall by the Charlotte Hornets.
“What a week,” Knueppel captioned the post.
Flagg, who was drafted No. 1 overall by the Dallas Mavericks, responded in the comments, writing, “My Brother ud83dudc99” — a heartfelt nod to their Duke connection.
