First Round
1. Dallas Mavericks: Cooper Flagg, 6’9, Forward, Duke (Freshman)
Drafting the Duke wunderkind is the perfect remedy to begin the Dallas’ fans healing process after the shocking Luka Doncic trade. Remember, this was a franchise that went to the 2024 NBA Finals but was in a state of mourning last year. If Flagg is as good as advertised, the Mavs received one of the all-time Draft Lottery gifts in moving up from No. 11 to be in position to draft the 18-year old who was named NCAA Player of the Year in his only season in college.
Flagg is a special defensive player who could develop into one of the league’s best two-way players if he comes anywhere close to meeting the high expectations he comes into the league with. If his play-making skills come naturally, it will be interesting to see just how good Dallas is in 2026-27 if Kyrie Irving fully recovers from his ACL tear.
Player Comparison: Bobby Jones. The eleven-time all-defensive pick for the 76ers is in the Hall of Fame and Coop has plenty of the same winning attributes. Not only that, Flagg is more skilled with better offense so that should give you a sense of the expectations for the former Montverde Academy FAB 50 national champ.
