Cooper Flagg became the 13th in history to sweep the ACC Player of the Week and ACC Rookie of the Week awards. On Monday afternoon, he became only the fifth to do so twice, a list consisting entirely of Duke basketball names.

But it just seems like what Cooper Flagg is doing at Duke should be a bigger story than it is. Do you agree? Yes, I understand that Flagg entered college with an unusual amount of hype that's even led to a "Cooper Flagg Tracker" here at CBSSports.

Thanks to a pair of 24-point performances against Virginia Tech and SMU last week, Duke freshman Cooper Flagg swept the ACC Player of the Week and ACC Rookie of the Week awards for the second time on Monday.

The SMU game is the first game Scheyer, who is in his third season as Duke’s head coach, missed since taking over the program following Mike Krzyzewski’s retirement in 2022. He never missed a game during his Duke playing career from 2006-10, when he appeared in 144 games.

The "bizarre experience" of watching Duke basketball on TV made Jon Scheyer feel like a movie character. Here's what he said about his absence.

Duke coach Jon Scheyer didn’t travel with the team to Dallas due to illness. Associate head coach Chris Carrawell took Scheyer’s spot on the bench as acting head coach at Moody Coliseum.
