The Duke guard had a slow first half against Kansas in Las Vegas, but there are key elements to his game that will translate to the pros.

Seth Greenberg breaks down what he's seeing from Duke's Cooper Flagg and what he thinks of Flagg's NBA prospects.

The 2025 NBA Draft lottery is going to be one of the marquee events of the season. For all the talent in this draft class, there will be no drama over who gets selected with the No. 1 overall pick. Cooper Flagg is living up to every ounce of hype at the start of his freshman season at Duke.

Flagg has been tested during the first weeks of his college career, and the 17-year-old phenom still looks like the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA draft.

On that play, Flagg drove to the basket on big man Hunter Dickinson. Adams arrived to help and swatted Flagg’s shot. He tried to recover the ball but knocked it out of bounds. On the next Duke possession, Adams stopped a three-on-one fast break by swatting Kon Knueppel’s shot at the rim.

Potential NBA first-overall pick Cooper Flagg finished the loss with 13 points, five rebounds, three assists and one steal while shooting 5/9 from the field and 1/1 from the three-point range. Many people reacted to his performance. Via @Dueycbb ...
