Mad props to hville getting this game scheduled in 48 hours after they saw MontverdeA post they needed an opponent. traveled state lines just to play the best. That’s how you get better
23 got that Gonzaga style of basketball. Fundamentals and buckets
I give the kids from Alabama credit for taking this game. With that said, they play like they're stuck in the 1960s. I'm a old guy that played in New York during the 60s and 70s. I'm in my late 60s and I've coach a lot of ball too. If this is what Bama HS ball looks like, they need to step up a bit. But you know, it's all about B ball culture.
Some coaches have a way of preventing players from being creative. I'm sure that's the problem here. Montverde is a joy to watch against anyone. Much appreciated.
I love how Flagg and the other montverde players don’t showboat
The old saying "act like you've been there" seems to ring true with them
They beat another team by 90 points recently and I think the last 30 points were all slam dunks. That’s completely show boating
@@The495marauder the other team should have undercut Flagg……..montverde would have stopped dunking
@@M2020-s5xspot on. If I was playing them and they’re dunking when up by 30, I’d tell them what’s coming…
23 is REALLY nice. Caleb Harrison? Haven't heard of him til now, he's really really nice and hopefully has a lot of offers lined up. Plays at his own pace and is very controlled
he is committed to samford in birmingham. i know his teammates (# eli stapler) dad. he coaches me in basketball and caleb comes to help out sometimes
Yeah that kid is the real deal
Copper Flagg is athletic as helll
23 could play for MVA, he hung right with them.
I think everyone agrees #23 was the unspoken hero in this bih
But you can tell he has a low ceiling.
Just a crafty player. He can make some dough in Europe leagues for sure
How can youn’tell’ he has a ‘low ceiling’ ?? I will concede he is not as tall or explosive as flag, and of course not the shot blocker at all. but he’s equally clever, efficient, and setting up his shots. I’m sure they said the same thing about Larry bird in high school. This kid is efficient smart scores with both hands and can patiently create his own shot.he doesn’t need to be as explosive .and note he got little help from his small overmanned team. Mva is loaded look at that sixth man coming off bench-he will start a major d 1 school. Flag is a unique talent, running the break, uses both hands , interior passing vision, explosiveness. I don’t see any 2 handling flag j. College. He won’t need to play much center at duke so he will be e perienced power forward and stringer when he leave for pros. Look at the career James worthy had in pros and he had no outside shot, couldn’t run the break, or,pass at ball like flag.
@@johnwhite2576 If you did not see the whole game or read the stats, there is no way for you to tell if he is efficient. You realize that, right?
@@TrojansFirsteasily the most talented player on the court but unfortunately his genetics will limit his upside long term. Skill-wise he’s a beast though
23 is a bucket he definitely got some more offers from this game
I think he's committed to Samford already
I was trying to figure out who Simon Walker was the whole time. 23 seemed to be far and away their best player.
OK, but we are watching highlights, which show only made shots.
@jakemccoy yeah your right but it's against a team full of D1 kids and a lottery pick so what's your point???
@@chrystianforeman7647 Recruiters show up at the game because highlights do not tell the story.
Incredible they're just in high school. Great quality of play. They look like an NBA team with all those alley-oops and good passing.
That's called bad defense & an undersized team!
@@quentincrisp6933 they'd do this against an average D1 as well lol, 90% of colleges are fiending for the bench players off of Monteverde.
BS! The quality they play against is bad!@@xum0007
Either of these teams could be the WNBA champ. And it wouldn’t even be competitive.
6:58 yooo 21 change of pace and scoop under float was super elite
I rewinded that like 20 times. Adding that to the bag fr
thanks man! appreciate it
@@user-ln1jf2ym9l was that u bro 😮💨 i also rewinded dat bih like 5 times was tuff asl😭
@@DapsVisualsthat ain’t him 😂😂, that’s Kayden Allen one he a sophomore a new piece they added this summer , he tough asf
23 on the other team lowkey tuff
he stiff asf
He’s lazy tho
@@Ryan-of9gy
That’s called fatigue. He was their only viable option to go to.

I was at this game...Buddy from Huntsville is niiiiiice!! HEaded to Samford, spoke to him after the game....please believe he was not scare of montverde nor coop! He took brung it.
Ngl blue team would destroy 95% of teams in the nation. Montverde is just a superteam
Facts
99%+
Yeah Huntsville (blue team) played Albertville (my school) and their defense was absolutely insane, our guys didn’t get a single open shot and their offense revolves around 23
I guess tested in a relative sense. Huntsville is still an outstanding team though! Won't be afraid of anybody after playing Montverde!
Pause at 1:52. His distance from the basket was insane.
The blessing of being 6’10
@@luhRvckthat’s a very athletic 6’10
@@thebestintheworld1601 yeah he’ll be a star when he hits the league
@@luhRvck no 6'10 players jump like that lil bro except maybe dwight howard and deandre jordan
25 is a great future big. Soft touch, great passer and nice moves round the basket
Yeah, he is smooth looks like butter. It looks like he is barely trying.
@@jakemccoylet’s see how he plays against other big men. He’s physically superior to everyone on the court. Won’t be that way next level
Thought 23 was the #1 player from Alabama watching this
Was about to comment this myself
#23 Caleb Harrison! He is tuff.
Shit - he wasn't? Lmaooooo. Who was then?
@@InkPncl 1 is Simon Walker (best player in Alabama according to 247)
The team introduction at the beginning of the video shows the difference in race mentality.
oh yeah cooper is insane. future nba lottery pick
Caleb Harrison#23 from bama is tuff!
He looks like their best player.
come on ballislife when yall gone put the score on the screen
Dude number 23 from the blue team. Went off. RLTW 3/75
23 Blue played a good clean game. None of this "look at me, mom" celebratory nonsense. Cheers to him. He's OG basketball.
Montverde would 100% drag the floor with the BEST team in the WNBA. without question.
This isn't even a question. They could beat them by 75-100 points if they wanted.
That’s not even up for debate. They men would win by 50 or more.
23 got next level game no doubt
Obviously, Montverde is a team full of stars so they won handily. But that Huntsville team wasn't exactly a bunch of scrubs. They played some solid ball.
#12 in the nation. not bad
@@BallerProdz10 Just confirmed that on MaxPreps. But I see Montverde Academy is 14-0, but their not even listed on the top 25 of the rankings. What's up with that?
@@PongGod i think they are a private school so maybe on max preps its just public schools
@@BallerProdz10 That's odd because I see plenty of private schools in their rankings in both basketball and football.
@@PongGod oh well i may be wrong
Dem Huntsville boyz tuff
Crazy how Huntsville was undefeated before playing them. Now they’re 30-2 playing in the regionals
6:06 ok that was smooth
Somebody in huntsville was playing in jordan 3’s😭😭never seen anyone hoop in 3’s before..
2 unselfish teams, loved the passing. Huntsville didn't have the size to match up.
Besides #23 who had a great offensive game
This Team Fits together so much Better than Last Year. They're Gonna be Hungry to Avenge their Loss at Geico
@Ballslife 2.0
Dude, thanks or making, editing, and posting this game.
I’ll look for more of your videos.
people are saying this guy is not the number one player in Alabama but what I’ve seen is ratings go by what state a player is playing in. for instance number 30 on the white team and Trey Johnson from Link academy are both from Texas, but are no longer included in the Texas rankings. The number one ranked player from Texas. This year is only a four-star recruit.
Alot of incredible talent to watch!
Dont understand why in description you would put close through 3 quarters🏃🤦
Is every high school hooper 6'9" these days? Wtf are they feeding these kids?!
damn, those youngsters move the ball around like pros!
Do they actually have classes at Mont Verde?
"Cooper got game!" Magic Johnson😊
Cooper Flagg is a beast 💯💯💯💯
League bound
When he gonna play against real comp though
@@commentboii his team has the toughest strength of schedule in the national. So real soon
@@commentboii this was preseason. their preaseason games are always against lesser comp. the real season starts next week. they play the best teams in the country.
Predicted number on first round pic in 2026
Hold on , so number 23 not the number 1 player in Alabama ?
Nah Labaron the #1 player in his class 2024, its #1 thats the #1 player of his class in 2025
@@headtapcrew He didn't look like it . Number 23 looks for real to me.
@@ThePimpn22 He is top ranked but not #1
Just looked up 23 he's committed to Samford
Dang wish ETSU could've picked him up instead.
Why their shorts so little?
23 is giving them problems💯💯💯
I said long before cooper was a number 1 player, and as highly regarded as he is now, that this kid is gonna be VERY good in the NBA, theyve used this title before but he lit reminds me of a modern day larry bird, yes he has some.athleticism to, but his game is just all around solid/ nothing flashy, and can shoot really good, those end up being some of the best players, the ones that arent flashy, but fill the stat lines
not even that serious
😆🤣
@@belowme8893 lol what did I say that you think isn't true, I bet he'll be one of the best players in the leauge, he's 6'9, handles the ball very good, shoots very good, etc. Like I said Larry bird, Larry bird wasn't a flashy player or athletic and I gaurantee you even in today's nba Larry b. Still dominate
So basically any tall white player that has game reminds Everybody of Larry Bird?
I think Andrei Kirilenko is a better comparison. About the same height, build, athleticism, and haircut, both are/were tenacious shot blockers capable of shooting it from the outside, although that's not their strength. Both solid slashers with solid court vision. It's the defense and competitiveness that separates Flagg from most others from what I've seen.
I feel like he just bigger than everyone right now
Who?
@@Zaghzackio cooper
@@lavonnn3khow man copper games have you watched 😂 he was barely ever the tallest on the court last year
@@yae7467 everything changes with once you get too college and everyone is bigger is what im saying
@@lavonnn3k you do realize the league he plays in is filled with 4-5 stars who going d1 and most centers are 6’10+. mva didn’t even win last year… and he was balling on the usa team. if you think size is the reason he’s out playing everyone you not really watching games. out of the few full games i watched so far this season. he’s missed like 10 shots in all.he is shooting crazy efficiency all over the court. dude just good bro 😂
When you say close throughout 3 quarters...what exactly is your definition of close?
Yeah, it wasn’t close.
Dude is far from the #1 player in Alabama. See Caleb Holt.
simon #1 in his class (class of 25)
@@chello9270proof?
I like Simon but I haven’t seen him ranked #1
@@ricardohill467 YOURE ON A SMART DEVICE RN. LOOK IT UP
Caleb a freshman ain't he
I thought #23 was the #1 player from Alabama 😂😂that boy nice🔥🔥
how is no one talking abt 25 on flagg's team he is a beast
he's a five star but yeah people dont talk about him enough
I know him
The Spartacus of basketball !
Either squad would demolish a WNBA team! The talents these young men possess is unreal!
Any decent high school JV team could probably do that. A freshman boys team beat the US womens soccer team
Number #23 is a total bad ass
Is that the battlefield 2 sounder at the beginning??!?!??!?
#14 gets up quick and easy.
Hold on cause 23 is cooking ‼️
Im proud of my school even tho we lost #GBR
My cousin Liam Chapman is on this team rn and there ranked number 16 in the country
Can we get a scoreboard the whole video?
Cooper just seems like a blank slate physically, if he builds more muscle and keeps his athleticism, he will be a good forward.
#23 tuff ❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️
23 is cookinggggg
Anyone else have to look up what Simon Walker looked like, and then be surprised when it wasn't #23?
me too
The rim going left looks bent the entire game lol
Can someone please send me a complete tv schedule for Monteverde?
Above the rim vs Below the rim
Better shooting percentage than the chosen NBA players .
Makes you wonder how or why such choices are always for a certain group
Maybe because the only way they ever even get to college is because they will be walk ons .
Michigan offer a walk on scholarship to 23 please i beg. He does got the Michigan during beilen national championship type swagger
Can't believe these dudes think they are accomplishing anything of character by loading up (recruiting) then playing the Midget Washington Generals.
you would think montverde would have better jerseys for how popular they are
#23 from Huntsville was the best player on the court
#23 stole the show
So how much we got this Montverde team beating the Las Vegas Aces?
I’ll be generous and say 35 lmao
I got 5 racks on 30
Tested? According to scoreboard game was NEVER close.
they the number one team in the nation huntsville not even ranked they should be dominating by 50 not 20
It was a 15 point game
Eh 14-10 is close. Can't really say it was NEVER close. And props to that other team, they hung in there tough.
First quarter was.
Huntsville is really good.
Is the best bball player from Alabama like the best swimmer from Kazakhstan?
Ha you funny. Bama is 4th in the nation in producing elite athletes. (All sports) Where you from? Wanna compare Nattys or names of athletes? Put some respect on that state
23 is a dog
I could win with a bunch of future pros too.
im ngl i really like asa newell game
I’m just confused on how they got “tested”
They beat last team they played by 90 😂 this was a 20 point game
What am I missing. These look like 2 decent, talented high school basketball teams. But I don’t see anything spectacular going on here.
And if these teams are so special, why is the gymnasium only 3/4 full? Shouldn’t it be full of students, parents, fans, scouts, and curious basketball fans in general?
That didn’t look like much of a game
Think I missed the part where they got tested
Hes only 16 your not going to see him in the nba for another 3 to 4 years.
🔥🔥
DUKE BABY
I Want To Give a Shout Out To Ballislife 2.0
Why is it so zoomd in? Man, mankes me nauseous.
This is NOT the #1 player in Alabama Caleb Holt is they need to get their facts straight
Everyone talking about 23. My brother told me come check out 23 that he isa bucket and a huge steal. What's going on with him where he going?
Samford
Can't see either one being a big star in the NBA.
Monteverde Academy is just a sports clearinghouse like IMG. Those kids aren't going to classes.
Flagg plays D!
Short rim
Either one of these teams would have beaten my high school team (1967) 99-0-.
Weak ahh damn high school kids think they hard tho
Uh small coaching tip for the bama team, put the niggas in the game😭😂 still would've lost but i promise you if you gave them a chance the score would've been better
Who’s this #1 from Cooper’s team?
Camera work is horrible. Gives me headache.
Next tear Mat Buzelis, now cooper flag and simon walker... The elite whiteboy era is here!!!
