Kon Knueppel (career-high 34 PTS) and Cooper Flagg (career-high 49 PTS) combine for 83 points, the most of any two opposing rookies in over 50 years. They are the first pair of opposing rookies from the same college to each score 30+ in the same game.

It was a game for the ages. Super glad it happened to be on our half season package. Wow, so many impressive plays and combinations.
Damn i had a futures bet on Coop before the season to score 50 points in a game. Woulda won like $3500 i think. So close. I wasn’t able to watch the game yesterday.
The fact that they were college roommates and are close friends makes it even more fun to watch.
The NBA is in good hands for the next decade. What a battle.
