Both Flagg and Roberson confirmed the relationship on social media.

The pair also posted a TikTok on Roberson’s account, holding hands and dancing together.
The relationship had been rumored for weeks, ever since Roberson was seen sitting with Flagg’s parents during his Rookie of the Year ceremony in late April.
Even before then, fans were wondering if they were together after images emerged on social media of the two on vacation together.
It’s currently unclear how they came to meet, but it would make sense if it had something to do with their Duke connection.
Roberson actually redshirted her first year at Duke, the same year that Flagg was a freshman for the Blue Devils. Last season, she averaged 8 points and 5.7 rebounds in 17.9 minutes per game.
