No. 1 Kansas will meet No. 11 Duke in Las Vegas on Tuesday in a battle of college basketball blue-blood programs and one of the top nonconference matchups of the 2024-25 season. Kansas has won four of the last five matchups against Duke and leads the all-time series 6-8.

Does anyone have love for the Kansas Jayhawks? The country’s No. 1 men’s college basketball squad is a 2.5-point underdog on a neutral court to No. 11 Duke on Tuesday night. Both teams should be at full strength as we head into the marquee affair in Las Vegas.

On that play, Flagg drove to the basket on big man Hunter Dickinson. Adams arrived to help and swatted Flagg’s shot. He tried to recover the ball but knocked it out of bounds. On the next Duke possession, Adams stopped a three-on-one fast break by swatting Kon Knueppel’s shot at the rim.

Flagg has been tested during the first weeks of his college career, and the 17-year-old phenom still looks like the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA draft.
