More good news for former Duke stars Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel, as both were unanimously named to the All-Rookie Team.

As far as we can find, the only time former college teammates were unanimously named to the All-Rookie team was in 2004-05 when former UConn Huskies Emeka Okafor and Ben Gordon pulled it off.

The odds of two Blue Devils making up 40% of the All-Rookie next year are slim. Cameron Boozer is a good bet, but at least in the short term, Isaiah Evans looks like he’s going to be coming off the bench for whoever drafts him.
