JUST IN: Bronny James Just Trolled Cooper Flagg After Their Game — But Flagg’s Comeback Broke the Internet! 😭🔥…Read More….

It’s not every day that two of basketball’s most hyped young stars trade words on and off the court — but that’s exactly what happened after Saturday night’s thrilling exhibition matchup between Bronny James and Cooper Flagg. The two future NBA prospects gave fans everything they could have hoped for: elite shot-making, fierce competitiveness, and just enough postgame drama to send social media into a frenzy.

The highly anticipated game between USC and Duke wasn’t just about team bragging rights — it was the latest chapter in a growing friendly rivalry between Bronny James, the son of NBA legend LeBron James, and Duke’s freshman sensation Cooper Flagg. Both players entered the game under massive media scrutiny, and neither disappointed.

Flagg lit up the scoreboard early, showing off his trademark energy and versatility. He finished the night with 24 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 blocks — looking every bit the future top NBA draft pick scouts expect him to be. But Bronny, who has been steadily finding his rhythm after a challenging start to his college career, had the final word where it mattered most — the scoreboard.

James dropped 19 points and 7 assists, including a dagger three in the final minute that sealed USC’s narrow 81–78 victory. As the final buzzer sounded, cameras caught Bronny turning toward Flagg with a playful smirk and tapping his wrist — mimicking his father’s famous “it’s my time” gesture. The moment exploded across social media within minutes.

“Bronny trolling Flagg is wild 😂🔥,” one fan posted on X (formerly Twitter). Another added, “LeBron really passed down the clutch gene and the petty gene!”

But Cooper Flagg wasn’t about to let the moment pass quietly. Hours later, the Duke star posted an Instagram story featuring a picture of Bronny’s shot — edited with the caption: ‘Good game… but see you in March 😏💪.’ Within minutes, #FlaggComeback started trending, as fans flooded the comments calling the exchange “the start of college basketball’s next great rivalry.”

Even LeBron James weighed in, quote-tweeting the clip of Bronny’s gesture with a laughing emoji and the words, “Like father, like son 😂👑.” Duke’s head coach, Jon Scheyer, handled it with grace when asked postgame. “That’s just two competitors doing what they do,” Scheyer said. “They respect each other, and they’ll push each other to be great.”

College basketball analysts have already started drawing comparisons to legendary duels of the past — from Zion Williamson vs. RJ Barrett practices to early LeBron vs. Melo showdowns in high school. But one thing’s for sure: Bronny James and Cooper Flagg are ushering in a new generation of basketball rivalry fueled by both skill and showmanship.

The next time these two meet, the stakes will be even higher — and fans can’t wait. As one viral comment summed it up perfectly: “Bronny may have won the game, but Flagg won the internet.”
