Fans flocked to social media to express their excitement over Flagg's performance, even though the opponent was an unranked Boston College team:

The near-homecoming game for the Newport, Maine, native did not disappoint, as Flagg delivered a standout performance in front of friends and family who attended the game.

Flagg opened the scoring for the Blue Devils with a jumper less than a minute into the game. He added seven made free throws in the first half, including an and-one after powering through contact for a layup.

Duke entered halftime with a 40-34 lead.

Flagg started the second half strong, scoring back-to-back layups to extend the Blue Devils' lead to 46-36. From there, he did it all—dunking, assisting, blocking shots and draining three-pointers—as Duke pulled away and turned the game into a blowout.

Duke and Flagg have a full week off before traveling to face Wake Forest next Saturday.
