Countdown To Craziness is the annual event that tips off Duke’s season where fans, spectators who are referred to as Cameron Crazies get their inaugural look at this years team the 2023-2024 team that is coached by Duke Head Coach Jon Scheyer who is coaching his second season as Duke Head Coach.

Cooper Flagg is a power forward who currently attends Montverde Academy where current freshman Duke forward Sean Stewart also went to high school.

Cooper Flagg is an elite two-way prospect. His instincts are off the charts on both ends of the floor and he competes with a quiet type of killer instinct. He's a defensive standout and particularly dominant as an off-ball defender. In fact, he's as good of an underclassman shot-blocker as I've seen at his size. Offensively, he's an excellent passer with a good foundation of early skill and developing playmaking ability. His footwork is excellent. His shooting and handling both good and continuously improving. He doesn't necessarily need to be the focal point on that end of the floor, but he's shown he's plenty capable of it. Physically, frame's Flagg is solid enough to absorb contact now and will only add additional muscle mass in the coming years.
