Cooper Flagg is making waves in the college basketball world as a freshman forward for Duke. Initially, he faced doubts about his potential as the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft due to some struggles early in the season. However, Flagg has silenced his critics with a remarkable improvement in his performance over the past few months.

Flagg, who reclassified into the 2024 recruiting class and started the season at just 17 years old, has shown tremendous growth on the court. His numbers have skyrocketed, averaging 23 points, seven rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.6 steals, and one block per game in the last eight games. His shooting percentages have also seen a significant boost, shooting 55 percent from the field, 50 percent from 3-point range, and 89 percent from the free-throw line.

This surge in performance has put Flagg in a league of his own, with comparisons to past collegiate stars like Zion Williamson. His dominance on both ends of the court has solidified his position as the likely No. 1 pick in the upcoming NBA Draft. Flagg’s ability to create his own shot, improved shooting mechanics, and defensive prowess have impressed NBA scouts and executives, making him a highly sought-after prospect.

One of the key areas of Flagg’s development has been his shot creation. Previously questioned for his ability to create scoring opportunities in half-court situations, Flagg has shown remarkable versatility and skill in generating offense for himself. His footwork, balance, and coordination have improved significantly, allowing him to navigate through defenses and find scoring opportunities effectively.

Moreover, Flagg’s shooting has seen a notable improvement, particularly from beyond the arc. His mechanical tweaks and increased confidence have led to a surge in his 3-point shooting percentage, showcasing his potential as a reliable shooter in the future. Combined with his playmaking abilities and defensive prowess, Flagg has emerged as a well-rounded player with the potential to lead a team on both ends of the floor.

Scouts have lauded Flagg not only for his on-court skills but also for his work ethic, competitiveness, and basketball IQ. His dedication to the game and his relentless pursuit of excellence have set him apart as a top-tier prospect in the draft. While there may be some questions about his on-ball defense at the NBA level, Flagg’s overall profile as a player makes him a valuable asset for any team looking to secure the top pick in the draft.

In conclusion, Cooper Flagg’s meteoric rise in college basketball has solidified his status as the frontrunner for the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. His combination of offensive firepower, defensive prowess, and intangible qualities make him a highly coveted prospect with the potential to make a significant impact at the next level. As the draft approaches, all eyes will be on Flagg as he continues to showcase his talent and potential on the court.
