Solid showing in champ game Knueppel posted 18 points (6-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two steals over 38 minutes during Saturday's 73-62 victory over Louisville.

Impact The Blue Devils were without Cooper Flagg (ankle) in this title game, but Knueppel stepped up once again and was one of the top performers for Duke on their way to the ACC title. Flagg should be Duke's go-to option in the NCAA Tournament, but Knueppel has proven he can be a reliable option on offense as well. He averaged 21.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.7 steals per game during the ACC Tournament.

Impact Knueppel led the Blue Devils in scoring and played a key role in the win, icing the game in the final seconds with two clutch free throws.

Impact The Blue Devils lost Cooper Flagg due to an ankle injury Thursday, but Knueppel stepped up and carried the team to victory, setting up another rivalry match against North Carolina. Flagg is expected to miss Friday's game, so Knueppel could be in line for a bigger role on offense once again.
