If the No. 1-ranked Kansas Jayhawks (5-0, 0-0 Big 12) manage to limit the overall impact of Duke basketball freshman phenom Cooper Flagg at the Vegas Showdown on Tuesday night, tipping off in T-Mobile Arena at 9 p.m. ET (ESPN), chances are they'll prevail over the No. 12 Blue Devils (4-1, 0-0 ACC).

Thus far, though, as is evident in the following lists of Duke basketball season stat leaders, there's no reason to think Flagg will be anything but brilliant on both ends of the floor once again.
