To be fair though it was just bad timing for Okafor. If it was still like 90s early 2000s basketball Okafor would have been great, but came into the league right when it was shifting away from the traditional center.
I mean, anything can happen but scrimmage or not he was just giving the Gold Medal team all they could handle. I see him as a franchise player whether he goes 1-3. Barring a serious injury at Duke next year I'd definitely be taking him #1.
Steph Curry is literally a multi-generational talent....name one single player in the last 70yrs even remotely like him?..... Yeah you can't because they don't exist.... Steph = generational talent! If you disagree then you only disagree because you're wrong!!! 🤷💪😎☝️🔥🎉🥇🏆
I see as much danger for Harper and Bailey. They could easily struggle on a Rutger team that has never had star players before and find themselves on the outs with NBA teams.
Cooper didn't skip his Senior Year technically... He re-classified UP to his Normal class... He classified DOWN a few years back then classified back up to his NORMAL CLASS....
When did he reclassify down? His birthday is in December, so age-wise he was in the right class prior to his reclassification last year. He has a twin brother, Ace, who didn't reclassify.
them kids are referred to as generational TALENTS not PLAYERS… keyword talent.. meaning their health, discipline, and work ethic are all yet to be determined… they got all the things you “can’t teach “ 😂 and yea it’s gonna be 10 years before we see another zion… he’s the biggest fastest strongest most explosive guy since bron n that took 15 years.. so i expect it to be another 10-15 before we see another american born dominating in that fashion…
Dont sleep on TJ Juckson. Some sites rank Ibrahim Moizoos in the top 3, and scouts have been abuzz lately for Tyroil Smoochie Wallace and Ladenefer Jadaniston.
Fair comments. I think when you add shot blocking, passing, rebounding, defense and box office to the equation, it's going to be hard not to take Cooper #1. If he isn't the top pick however, as you said, it doesn't mean a great deal.
Of all the landing spots, I kinda like Utah and the Spurs for the Top 5. I feel like they know what they're doing with their build-ups. Small market, yes but they seem to hold promise and are well managed.
It don't really matter who goes 1. What matters is that they should go go the right team to unlock their generational talent. They're only going to lose a couple million if drafted lower than one but if they really have generational talent, that's an easy supermax
The team everybody would want to go to is the Jazz they're gonna win they got tons of picks great young talent awesome coach and organization that wants to win
You cannot tell me at this point that Victor is a can’t miss prospect or a generational talent on the same level as LeBron James or Kobe Bryant… physically he’s a monster, but there’s four more to it than just that he had a great rookie year. It’s gonna be interesting to see if he keeps it up.
For those of you saying “the hawks don’t have their first rounder in 2025” after seeing the list of the teams that have a shot at a high draft pick, note that the hawks do own the lakers first rounder in 2025
I would say that getting 4/10 correct as a first pick is pretty good. I mean that's a great 3 point shooting percentage. I'd say that's pretty good when you consider how many prospects there are every year.
There’s no chance flagg isn’t number 1 😂 Even an average season will see him lock up the 1 spot. He has every single physical tool to go number 1, but what separates him from the rest is his mentality. Carrying a B team in the USA scrimmage to almost beating the main team is something high school players just don’t do.
I generally prefer for guys that don’t have great play strength to be very great shooters but I think flag is the truth. Great athlete, tough and very skilled outside of his long range shooting. He knows how to get to spots where he has “go-to’s” and a lot of guys with great traits can’t do that. They might beat a guy off the bounce but when they get to the rim they just pick a side to lay up on or dunk if they can. Flag knows based on a defenders position that he can use a spin and that guy will be out of the picture to contest and he has that spacial awareness consistently and in real time. Not only from correctly anticipating the defensive rotation. Although he’s not a great passer he doesn’t get tunnel vision so even if he doesn’t see the optimal pass you can’t overcommit defensively because he can may you pay with the basics. Simply put he can react in real time rather than picking his approach at the top of the key and hoping his plan goes exactly as he thinks it will
Biggest issue i see with cooper is defining his primary position. Is he a 3 or 4. Hes slight for a big and his perimeter skills haven't been consistently showed. I really like bailey especially if he's really 6'8-9. I get a blend of Charlottes Miller, rockets Amen Thompson potential coming into the league
He did t “skip “ his senior year. He earned enough credits to graduate early! I bet u would say he “skipped “ his senior year if he were an engineer, doctor, etc, to further his trade!!!!! The key is health and d where u r drafted.
He reclassified. That's term that every reputable website stated. Just a bit lazy reporting here. Flagg graduated with a 4.10 GPA, so he likely could have skipped a grade if needed.
Worried about his shot creation? Scouts literally said he was the most impressive player out of all the selected training players for to play against team USA, I'm pretty sure shot creation is the last thing you would have to worried about for him.
Cooper should go to play in Europe for one year in France under the Club of Tony Parker or Mr. Collet the French coach to have some environemnet of life expereinces outside of the US. Most Americans did not think that foreign players from outside the mainland United States would struggle for a while before they could adjust to the new environment, culture and language. All these facts show that they struggled from the start. Even Wembanyama continued to struggle, although he received the full support of the Spurs through all his problems. The American college players do not have to adapt at all, they just have to go on the field and play, that's why they have always been better than foreign players from the beginning on.
@5STARGAV somethings wrong, I feel like Detroit should've been better the last couple years with all the young talent they have. Monty Williams was a terrible mistake before the ink dried on his contract. If they get the right coach I think they can be a lot better. Don't know who they have now.
First, Flagg has no pressure. If he's picked #1, his BEST hope is the Spurs, but after that it's the Wizards, Pistons, Trailblazers and Nets (Utah would be a great place to go). That's pressure to get picked LOWER, not to overperform. #2, Why does a 6'8 forward need better ball handling skills? How many great ball handlers are in the NBA starting today who are great ball handlers?
So predicting next years top draft picks is too far ahead; “nobody knows what could happen” but you took a “deep dive” into predicting a competition 4 years away?!?!? … no hate I was just proving I stayed till the end of the video, nice work, as always!
Rutgers recruiting like they are the 1980s SMU football team. Thank heavens for NIL, and NCAA can't do anything about it. Recruiting to New Jersey is not the easiest thing to do so 2 of the top 3 is impressive as hell. Let's hope they fit together with the other pieces and we see progression not regression and who is the true dominant leader between them on the floor.
He's 17 years old. He'll be the youngest player in the NBA in 2025/26 based on his birthdate, with barely qualifies him for the NBA. He's perfectly suited for the NBA pick-and-roll game. His ball handling and 3 point shot are not elite yet, but both are good and getting better.

So predicting next years top draft picks is too far ahead; “nobody knows what could happen” but you took a “deep dive” into predicting a competition 4 years away?!?!? … no hate I was just proving I stayed till the end of the video, nice work, as always!
Flagg looked super good against the Olympic Team.
The problem is being drafted by WAS or DET. I love stacked draft
Rutgers recruiting like they are the 1980s SMU football team. Thank heavens for NIL, and NCAA can't do anything about it. Recruiting to New Jersey is not the easiest thing to do so 2 of the top 3 is impressive as hell. Let's hope they fit together with the other pieces and we see progression not regression and who is the true dominant leader between them on the floor.
Don’t forget Montel Morris he’s up next for sure 🔥🔥
They’re concerned about his ball handling and shot creation….He’s 18 years old. If anyone is expecting a finished product than that’s just delusional
He's 17 years old. He'll be the youngest player in the NBA in 2025/26 based on his birthdate, with barely qualifies him for the NBA. He's perfectly suited for the NBA pick-and-roll game. His ball handling and 3 point shot are not elite yet, but both are good and getting better.
What's your opinion about Miikka Muurinen? (If you have heard the name before)
Isnt Cameron Boozer supposed to be a top pick too? Or is he 2026?
0:52 lebron is not recent. Are you saying that kobe isn’t generational? He wasn’t drafted 20 years after jordan though? Least brain moment
I don't mind if Flagg doesn't go number 1. To even hope he falls all the way down to the Celtics pick.
Nice video with good information
The okafor scenario doesn’t fit at all here
No one thought Ja Morant should of gone over Zion tf
Too bad Ja thought he was playing in the NRA.
