Flagg followed his Rookie of the Year win with a kiss‑filled Instagram story, while Roberson reshared the moment. The pair, both alumni of Duke, showcased their bond to fans and the league on Sunday night.

Roberson, who finished her freshman season averaging 8.0 points and 5.7 rebounds, missed the time Flagg played in Durham. The duo appeared together at the award ceremony where Flagg received the Rookie of the Year trophy, standing beside his parents Kelly and Ralph in the press area. Their public display underscores a rare on‑court romance blooming off the floor today.

Before the getaway, Flagg had already been in the spotlight, driving the pace car at the Würth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway. His rookie campaign saw averages of 21.0 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists. The couple’s visibility may boost fan engagement for both the Mavericks and Duke, while also adding a human interest angle to an already stellar season for recently.
