Live 2025 NBA Lottery Mock Draft with Cooper Flagg projections, trade ideas

Pro comparisons: Jalen Johnson, Kevin Garnett

There is no major process for Cooper Flag. Apart from mandatory holes and tests in the NBA combine, number 1 will probably only hit the lottery winner.

Flagg should achieve an immediate beginner with his athletics, his passenger and his defense activity with high IQ activities, but his ball handling, creation and promotion of shot improves with rapid installments. While the two-way diversity of flag should help to adapt to a situation or fit, the on-ball development that we saw at Duke strikes that it will not take long for the offensive to run through it.

Team -Fit: The Luka Dončić deal has obviously left Dallas without a long-term heart, and flag is perfectly suitable to fill this emptiness. Immediately, his play finish will shine alongside Kyrie Irving as soon as Irving returns from his March ACL tears and the defense of the MAVs with Flagg, Anthony Davis and Dereck Liveliv II will disturb all possible disorders of the front placement. –Zach Buckley, NBA -Analyst
