<p id=”par-2_46″>Flagg and Duke Blue Devils center Arianna Roberson “hard-launched” their romance in a series of social media posts during their island getaway. Roberson first shared a TikTok montage showing the pair together. Shortly afterward, Flagg posted a mirror selfie of the two kissing on his Instagram Stories.</p>

<p id=”par-3_34″>Now, people have a few questions about the couple and their relationship including what their height difference is as Roberson appears just a bit shorter in the images and videos clips they shared. </p>
<p id=”par-4_30″>Rumors about their relationship had been building since April, when Roberson attended Flagg’s NBA Rookie of the Year celebration and press conference where she was spotted sitting alongside his parents.</p>
<p id=”par-5_49″>As mentioned, Roberson plays for Flagg’s alma mater. And like her beau, she arrived at Duke as a <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/celebrity-athletes/?swcfpc=1″>five-star recruit</a>. However, a knee injury kept Roberson sidelined during her freshman season. The following year, she averaged 8 points and 5.7 rebounds in 17.8 minutes for the Blue Devils. </p>
