It seems that Cooper Flagg loves his alma mater, Duke, so much that he is finding new love interests at the school.
Over the last few years, Flagg has been winning in life, big time. In 2023, he was the most sought-after high school player in the nation. He then parlayed his success into a huge NIL deal with college basketball powerhouse Duke in 2024 and carried them to the National Championship game last spring.
Last June, he went first overall in the NBA Draft. And while the Dallas Mavericks had a pretty rough season during his debut in the NBA, the 19-year-old looked like a future superstar. Leading the Mavs in points (21.0) and steals (1.2) and earning 2025-26 Rookie of the Year honors.
The world is truly his oyster as a teenage millionaire, and he surely has endless suitors who would love to be squired about Dallas and be seen with the new NBA star. However, while it was confirmed this week that Flagg has a new love interest, it isn’t an actress, supermodel or social media influencer.
Arianna Roberson confirms she is dating fellow Duke alum Cooper Flagg
On Thursday, Arianna Roberson confirmed a relationship between her and Flagg in a new TikTok post of the pair having a little fun on vacation. What’s interesting about the couple is that Flagg is a Duke alum while Roberson, 20, currently plays for the women’s basketball team.
Flagg posted a separate Instagram story late last night that took things a bit further and showed the pair in a liplock.
Roberson was a five-star recruit out of Texas who earned McDonald’s All-American honors as she led Clark High School to a state title. In just under 18 minutes a game during her debut season, the 6-foot-4 freshman averaged 8.0 points, 5.7 boards, and 1.3 blocks a night for the Blue Devils. She is sure to take on an even bigger role in her sophomore season with Duke.
