Cooper Flagg makes his Final Four debut with Duke on Saturday in San Antonio, with the Blue Devils two wins away from cutting down the nets.

To get to the final, though, the presumed No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft must take down the No. 1-ranked defense on KenPom.

No. 1 Duke and No. 1 Houston are set to tip off at 8:49 p.m. ET on Saturday at the Alamodome in the Final Four of the men's NCAA Tournament.

One of the reasons why the Blue Devils enter the Final Four as the team to beat is their depth; they have the No. 1-ranked offense on KenPom. Headlining that depth is Kon Knueppel, the 6-foot-7 guard out of Milwaukee who is shooting an impressive 53.1% from the field in the postseason and averaging 14.8 points per game.

L.J. Cryer headlines the Houston offense for Kelvin Sampson's team. The 6-foot-1 guard is averaging 16.8 points in four NCAA Tournament games and 15.4 points per game this season. The Cougars are coming off a stellar defensive performance against Tennessee in the Elite Eight.

The winner of Duke-Houston will advance to Monday night's national championship game against the winner of Florida-Auburn, which precedes the Blue Devils-Cougars game.
