Skip Bayless unleashes criticism on Cooper Flagg despite double-digit first-half lead vs. Baylor

Skip Bayless never holds back in his criticism of athletes. He’s enjoying March Madness like other college basketball fans across the country. And on Sunday, despite the Duke Blue Devils being up by 17 points at halftime, he had some criticism for Cooper Flagg. Bayless wanted him to be more assertive, aggressive, and defer to his teammates less.

“Cooper Flagg had 15 on 5 shot attempts in the first half to lead all scorers – Duke up 17 – while being unselfish to a fault. Again and again I said, “Come on, just attack” as he worked the ball around to teammates. He could’ve had 30 if he wanted.” Bayless explained.
