For the second time in three years, the Duke Blue Devils are ACC champions. Jon Scheyer's squad took down the Louisville Cardinals on Saturday evening, overcoming the absence of Cooper Flagg in order to secure the program's 23rd ACC title.

After Duke advanced to the ACC title game with a 74-71 win over North Carolina without Cooper Flagg, Blue Devils coach Jon Scheyer said Flagg would not play Saturday, either.

No. 1 seed Duke won three games in three days in Charlotte, North Carolina this week to capture the 2025 ACC Tournament championship for the 23rd time in program history and first since 2023. Duke defeated No.

No. 1 Duke showed off its depth of talent with Cooper Flagg sidelined and defeated 13th-ranked Louisville 73-62 on Saturday night to clinch its second ACC tournament title in three seasons under Jon Scheyer.
