And you know what?<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Flagg finished with 27 points on 10-17\/0-1 from the floor, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals. He also provided real leadership for his team down the stretch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">All in all, it was an impressive performance.
