In Maine, I think the cutoff birthday used to be 10/15 (still is?), more schools are 12/1. Most places if you’re born in December they put you in the next lower class… so yes, essentially a jr in high school representing well
He don’t need to be wemby,lebron,Edwards, or curry. He’s already on the court competing against the the best in the NBA at 17 years old. Trust me he’s only going to get better.
@@rasheedshakir6431 this comment makes ZERO sense. Who cares if it's a scrimmage game. How many 17 year old high school prospects can go into a scrimmage against the best NBA players and have any impact. Now he's going to go play against college players and probably dominate. All of this is only prepping him further for his rookie season. Yes, he has to play through an 82 game season. And he'll probably be on a bad team. But the point is about the poise and understanding of how to play... less about the results.
@joshuaazenberg4664 your obviously not a basketball head, a scrimmage is not an all out game, so yes he will get some shots off, and he is Def a great prospect, prime example wembeyona, everyone thought he was gonna come in and destroy the leauge and he quickly found out at this level everyone can play jump shoot block especially when they livihood on the line, its cool dude I'm not hating on him, I'm just saying if you think the dream team was going all out then you might want to watch a little more basketball because if they really wanted to go at this kid meaning lebron kd Ad ant man and make him bang in the post body him up he might have scored 7pt at most, but I do like what I saw and Def think he will be a great player at Duke and 1st round lottery pick!!!
I watched Montverde play this past year. What makes him stand out is he's good at both offense and defense. He can also dunk like it's nothing. Even if he doesn't end up going #1 in next years draft he'll be a good 2 way player for any team. For 6-8, 6-9 however tall he is he's pretty well rounded. He could really play any position.
As a heels fan I’m very happy he’s a one and done lol. The first time I saw him was sometime last year and I was very surprised with how explosive he is, he already has high end nba level athleticism
Lakers need to just Tank this season 2024-2025, we aint winning the finals, tanking for Cooper Flag first draft pick for 2025 draft lol Let the tank games begin!
@@eddyvideostar Yeah man, Lakers fans we're desperate after LeStatpad didnt get us to two playoffs and barely making it to play-in playoffs last 6 years... we really sad.. We dont count MickeyMouse Disney buble tourney and in-season clown show banners lol sad ... really sad... Kobe rolling in his grave, counting these tourney banners.. we only hang real championships ... welll that was before LeStatpads 6 year failure Lakers tenure that is.. sad...
Kids like this are born not made! We'll be seeing big things from this kid, as he'll have a huge impact on whatever team he plays for, and he'll only get better!
There are probably still fans trying to call him overrated, when he just went toe-to-toe with the best in the NBA. And he almost beat them. It's true he still fell short, but a 17 year old isn't supposed to be able to do that.
I'm a lifelong Ct. resident/B-Ball fan that's anti-Duke for 50 years. We got a 3-peat to defend, this kid is gonna be an issue. Hurley better get on that portal ASAP. LOL
my observation is Cooper doesnt stop hustling. He plays all the way to the whistle all the time. Makes a shot then hustles back on defense for the block.
I wish him the best basketball future possible!! Appart this...before watching this video, I wathed a couple of others about Cailtin Clark. Now...KD praised Cooper, Booker praised him, young NBA players also praised him . Exactly as the WNBA players are doing for Clark!!!!! 😄😄😄😄😄😄
Women are different from men. Adult male chimps hunt in cooperative packs. Larry Bird was great because all the players around him were great…Johnson, McHale, Parrish, Ainge, Walton. RIP DJ and Walton. Too bad that Len Bias died from a crack cocaine OD or he would be on this list.
I never heard of him before these games. The other day I click on the USA team scrimmage ,I was trying figure out who he was, his movements was legit, his shot selection was on point, he was not rushing...truthfully,I thought he was a player for the olympic team that I never saw. He should do two years of college and make his way to the league, he appears to be that good in my opinion .
You people are not going to believe this, but this is the only player I have ever witnessed that reminds me of Kobe. That is who he looks like, tight handles, great footwork, great post game, tenacious defender, and you can't deflate him by blocking one of his shots he just keeps coming, he's relentless. Not to mention, his basketball IQ. If Jordan ever gets a hold of this kid and brings him in at Brand Jordan on a shoe deal and mentors him like he did Kobe... this kid could be better than everyone in the league now and future draft picks. He's the #1 player in the nation just like Kobe and Jordan coming out of High School. Kobe was headed for Duke if he hadn't declared for the draft. Although, Coach K is retired what he built at Duke is now on automatic. You are looking at THE REAL White Mamba heading to Duke, one-and-done, Kid is tough mentally.
That put back he had and the way hes shooting reminds me of larry bird dude. This kids iq is there. Im punching the air at finding out hes going to dukey
I hope a lot of people can see this message Please stop putting all this pressure on this kid Cooper flag is not better then nba players he has like a 4% chance to even make the league So to say all this about him is just putting pressure on him
Reminds me of drama with CC in wnba except these superstars are giving the kid his due. He will win some and lose some against these guys but at least nba studs have no problem bragging on him.
He will be dominant and unlike Christian Laettner, not stay 4 years at Duke and then fizz out in NBA...he will get drafted early and mature in the NBA and be a monster there!
Cooper Flagg needs to play for the Denver Nuggets. Imagine Jokic and Flagg on the floor together. The Blue Devils could win the NCAA Division 1 national championship if Flagg remains healthy.
A lot of people don't realize he is actually supposed to be preparing for his senior year of high school but reclassified during his junior year.
In Maine, I think the cutoff birthday used to be 10/15 (still is?), more schools are 12/1. Most places if you’re born in December they put you in the next lower class… so yes, essentially a jr in high school representing well
It's dumb that he has to play a year in college, so risky, so pointless.
So different than the WNBA. These guys are given this young man props and building him up. The WNBA just craps on Caitlyn Clark.
Difference between men and women
So true!
100% I'm so glad Clark won all votes for ROYY. She's about to change the WNBA like Jordan and LeBron did for the NBA
He don’t need to be wemby,lebron,Edwards, or curry. He’s already on the court competing against the the best in the NBA at 17 years old. Trust me he’s only going to get better.
Yep! Kobe was 17 when he started to scrimmage and play with nba players as well.
Ok it's a scrimmage game, trust me NBA basketball is another level!!! Put him out there 4 real!!! Once again average play being over hyped!!!

Maybe Lebron should adopt Cooper and play with him on the Lakers in one year.
30 teams want to adopt him 🙃
Trade Bronnie and some others to go UP to #1 spot, take Cooper. Hilarious.
LOL
ahhh... another laker fan wants everyone on that team...
just like gsw fan... 🤣🤣🤣
@@blahblahblah-u2uyou wouldn’t want a lot of top players on your favorite team?
Time will tell. But to impress NBA stars the way he did tells you something.
30 teams want to adopt Cooper 🙂
"time will tell?" people been talking about this guy for a few years now and he is JUST AS GOOD as everyone thought. He will excell in the NBA
Only thing time gna do is get him better
There are no NBA stars they lost to Sudan
He's going to last 15 minutes in college before he gets drafted. I wish Miami would tank for this guy but Miami never tanks.
Whoever has the #1 pick in the 2025 draft will really be hitting the lottery with this kid. He's gonna be one of the greats.
2026*
And you know what, Cooper ain't running his mouth like a lot of these dudes do. He's out there handling his business.
That's cool.
Favorite Basketball Channel🔥🔥🔥
Impressive stay healthy and keep working. Big Contract!🏀
Some people don’t realize, Theses kind player are born not made!!
They are born and made. Flagg won the genetic lottery, no doubt, but that wouldn't matter if he didn't work hard.
He’s 17 and has a decent high and frame, he’s good a controlling the tempo,he will have a good future
Im jealous as fuck cooper is destroying team USA at 17 and i was going negative in black ops at 17
bruh i couldnt even destroy my bros soccer team. And that lil shit is 8 years old.
Cooper Flagg never had to hear people tell him to go "kys!" you good man.
He didn't get there wasting his time with video games.
@zakglove6536 thanks for free tip 👍 never would have thought of that... dip ass
Yall actually think team USA was going hard ?
Dope channel bro. Cooper legit
I am surprised how good he is. His transtions are amazing and very little wasted motion.
He is EVERYONE dream 2k build
This young guy is the real deal
Coop has my attention. I will keep an eye on this kid moving forward.
@@RonValentine-ky8vi Dude, I know this is the internet but that was uncalled for! Did your mother have any kids that lived?
This kid is a professional basketball player man.This kid is gonna make an impact on whatever thing he goes to.
I hope he goes to the warriors
Shows you how bad the lazy NBA really is when a 17 year old kid is dominating them.
@@Sambone702 LeBron did the same thing as a teen. Coop is just that good
Totally different if you idolised the true goat rather than the self proclaimed one!
More power to him. NBA needs him
New subscriber. Really good stuff!!
And to top that off, he actually should be going into his senior year in HS.
Cooper is no doubt special. I would like to see him get a little better backspin on his jumper. Those knuckle balls are inconsistent.
Will be following his career!

dude if youre 6'9 you better be able to dunk like nothing....people hype up wenmbaya bc he dunks when dude is literally 7'4
He had 25 points, which is more than a third of his teams total
The future NBA is coming 🎉
Best channel out there

Here comes Detroit, San Antonio, Houston, Charlotte….for that first pick 😂
I'm a lifelong Ct. resident/B-Ball fan that's anti-Duke for 50 years.
We got a 3-peat to defend, this kid is gonna be an issue. Hurley better get on that portal ASAP. LOL
Hope one of the NBA players steps up and mentors this talented young man!
GREAT SKILLS, SHOT, PASS, KNOWLEDGE & HUSTLE ..... also he is 6'9" - ALSO LIKE LARRY BIRD ! Impressive !!!!
We need him on the knicks plz 🙏
he has vision and IQ too
he has everything man he reminds me of a young lebron or Larry
my observation is Cooper doesnt stop hustling. He plays all the way to the whistle all the time. Makes a shot then hustles back on defense for the block.
I see that too. Seems like he enjoys basketball on both sides. Surprisingly good defender and elite offense, the kid might be special
Kid played cause he is special and he showed us why he was invited at 17.
The white version of Kevin Durant
I think Durant is a better shooter but Cooper will be a better shotblocker
Cooper Flagg is great. I am anxious to see more about him. Duke is one of my Favorite teams. Cooper makes Bronny look like a clown
I wish him the best basketball future possible!!
Appart this...before watching this video, I wathed a couple of others about Cailtin Clark.

He will do one year and be the #1 pick. Would have been top five if he was drafted now, but NBA rules won't let him in..
This was the first time you saw him? He’s all over UA-cam…..
@@thomasbarlow3782 I am an NBA fan
@@Reno-pz3kt ok. Gotcha!
He could potentially grow even more.
It's a shame that he'll likely have to play for the Pistons or the Wizards. If he's lucky it will be Brooklyn that wins the lottery.
Cooper is for sure one to look at.
He's gonna be great we need him on the Portland trail blazers
Next to oden hehe kidding
I hope Cooper has a great year in college. Just not against the Heels.
🏀 🏀 🏀
He is just supposed to be a senior in high school this year but some how he ships it and goes to duke
Cooper Flagg plays a LOT like Luca... but he plays some serious defense and shot blocking as well. He is the real deal !!!
mark my words, while his shot is nice, once they teach him to put more rotation on it, its gonna be lights out.
He won’t be no good in the NBA if he gets there.

Just did
@@MakaiMauka nah let him get in the league first
datwz dah leeg😂
@@JoeJohnson-us3qj nah that’s guys going 50 percent
the glaze is kinda crazy
Cooper can score 30 points within 1st quarter. He deserve to be nba player and offer salary usd 500 million a year.
Portland will be getting their next star in this guy
FEROCIOUS dunk?!?!?!
He is like a blond LeBron/KD. Is a KD/LJ Mix. An instant legend in NBA like Wemby.
To early to say Wemby is a "legend".
@GregH-bf2ml hes not even close to being a legand.....hes 7'4 and just runs and hops a dunk and ppl think hes good lol
@@Quloh ... That's right, who he calling the fool?
@@marktrail8624 literally....dude like this be saying lamelo aint crazy when he actually would prolly be a superstar if he wasnt on the hornets.....

Wow he has a future hope they don’t try to side line him like they did Caitlin Clark
.....and Campbell's Chunky Soups " Eats Like A Meal"....
Yep…he’s really good. NOW give Mac McClung a chance!!!
He graduated his Junior year. Technically this should be a HS Senior this upcoming year.
17 year old 6’m9” Point pivot…. he will be a Duke one and Doner
I hope a lot of people can see this message
Please stop putting all this pressure on this kid
Cooper flag is not better then nba players he has like a 4% chance to even make the league
So to say all this about him is just putting pressure on him
He's gonna be the greatest white player ever.
And with the number one pick in the 2025 draft the Lakers select Cooper Flagg !
Reminds me of drama with CC in wnba except these superstars are giving the kid his due. He will win some and lose some against these guys but at least nba studs have no problem bragging on him.
Copper future nba superstar
Lil Cooper make me believe in larry bird 😂😂😂😂
Not a Spurs fan… but the basketball Gods need to let us see Wemby, Coop, and CP3 together 😮
This is what I'm hoping will happen. It would be glorious to watch the showtime Spurs.
SUPERRBB VIDEO 👌
He will be dominant and unlike Christian Laettner, not stay 4 years at Duke and then fizz out in NBA...he will get drafted early and mature in the NBA and be a monster there!
watch out for his brother, Randall
Going to be with Duke Blue Devil team
White mamba on the making 😊✌️
Modern day Larry Bird!
100%
The select team only has teenagers. He was talking about that.
When will he get the "Next Larry Bird" moniker.... looks like he's surely a candidate.
I kinda wondering why he didn't average more in HS..
How awesome would that be if the Pistons got em?
Cooper Flagg needs to play for the Denver Nuggets. Imagine Jokic and Flagg on the floor together. The Blue Devils could win the NCAA Division 1 national championship if Flagg remains healthy.
How would Denver possibly get a top draft pick????
How is Chet Holmgren not on the SELECT team?
Cooper wants to play for the Knicks 🏆💵✌🏿
He also sounds like an Apollo astronaut.
A male version of Caitlin Clark? I am sure looking forward to see this young man in the NBA!
Why the hell is lebron still on the Olympic teem ,hes old lol
Avengers assemble! Think of him as nick fury
Cooper would learn tons about the leagues schemes by going to the Spurs or Celtics. If he lands in either it's gonna be scarry to see.
BROOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY needs to take notes from COOOOOPPPPPERRRRR!!!!!!!!
I have been watching Cooper since his freshman year in hs. HE IS THE next great player. I wish celtics could get him.
White LeBron!!
Did he have to go to Duke?
Well, that's a "real headline".
pretty legit hype
Maybe the skill level in the NBA is not as great as we all think. I wonder what’s gonna happen in the Olympics?
He seems taller than 6'8". Is he still growing?
He’s 6’10
