Cooper Flagg

I see a lot of stuff written about this HS kid, Cooper Flagg, because he's one of the best players ever to come out of New England, and definitely the best to come out of Maine - where I live. He's going to be at Duke next year and then enter the NBA draft in 2025. He's already considered a likely overall [HASH]1 pick. Here's a really good article about him:

I haven't actually seen him play yet, but I can't wait.

update: ESPN2 will be showing a game of his in the Hoophall Classic Sunday at 7:30.

Man I can't imagine how exciting this is for people in Maine. The closest thing we've had in North Dakota is when Carson Wentz went with the 2nd overall pick to the Eagles.

I've always rooted against Duke, but I guess I'm going to change my tune on that.

I will be interested to see how his game translates from high school to college, then college to the pros. @high school level, he has dominated. @college level, I expect him to continue to dominate, especially because the draft class is considered weak. I would like to him in action to comp to another player.
