2025 NBA Draft

The race for Cooper Flagg is on.... (Or is it?)

Seems much deeper. Two super high end prospects and multiple good players. Cooper isn't a lock as of now to go 1-1. Interesting.

an excellent question, but the real inquiry is who is the 13th best prospect we will pick at #5.

[Deleterious]

Most have him at #5.

Givony had Flagg number 1 but said that Airious Bailey and Dylan Harper right behind him and of course said all 3 would be number 1 in the 2024 draft.

The 2026 draft will be stacked too. Watching our U17 team just crushing teams. Beat China by about 80, Philippines by 96, now up by about 40 on Canada.

Waiting on the Flagg/Larry Bird comparisons because they're both skilled forwards who are white

Some reports that Cooper Flagg looks like the best player on the floor for the select team in Vegas.

Maine is the next basketball hotbed.

Cooper's brother is pretty good too. He's down here at Montverde now as well.....

Flagg is only 17 and won't turn 18 until December 21. 

American players have to turn 19 in the calendar year they are drafted. He was two weeks away from having to play 2 years of college ball. 

[Deleterious]

Vecenie just released his first mock. His top 5 in order: 

Flagg

Harper

Traore

Edgecombe

Bailey

He said all 5 would have gone #1 this year.

That’s kind of mesmerizing.

I miss being able to...sort of...do that

Just like Larry Bird.

It's the 2026 class.  But AJ Dybantsa played Boozer last night.

So, you're saying the Pistons are going to make the 8th seed then?
