As it turned out, to start the year, when Cooper was struggling a little bit offensively, and that's where the questions were, it was actually Dylan Harper who was hooping at Rutgers, Ace Bailey's teammate. And I think there was a point there where Cooper never left number one on my board, but it was actually Dylan that May was in the same tier as him.

And for me, tier means, okay, if me and you are in the same tier S and a team is drafting... I would understand if they took me over you, if my skillset made more sense than your skillset made. Right now, Cooper Flagg should be the number one pick for all 30 teams in the NBA. There's no question in my mind. He's in his own tier on my board, number one pick, and it doesn't matter who's picking.

Now, are there teams that maybe he fits the roster better and all of that? Sure. But what he's done offensively is what has risen him

Yeah, so I still want to start with the defense and the impact he can make on that end of the floor. I think Cooper Flagg is, if you want to assign a position, to me, he's like a natural four that can play some three, right? He has some versatility there. I don't know that he's like your all NBA level point of attack defender. I don't know that he's that, but...

But he has this big time athleticism, off ball rotator, low man. Like we always talk about those low man rotation rim protection guys, right? I think that is Cooper. I've watched him do it in high school. For those that don't know, he played at that awesome Montverde team last season that had

If you follow the draft, Derrick Queen, Liam McNeely, these other guys that are all big time players as well, Asa Newell, all of those guys are potential lottery picks in their own right. And that's part of why the offensive question marks were there was he played on this insanely talented offensive team. Here's what's impressive about Cooper.

I really look at conference play numbers S because when you get it, I think a player can surprise people. The first 10 games of the season, you can come into a college season and scouting reports, not as out. You haven't had time. You get into conference play. Everybody's a known quantity. I think the rotations ratchet up teams, right? He's averaging 20 to a game on 54, 47, 85 overall.

Almost seven free throw attempts over four assists. I was looking at the synergy numbers. I don't always go to the numbers, but like catch and shoot, he's at 39%, whether it's guarded or unguarded on dribble threes. He's at, excuse me, those numbers. Yeah. Right at 40% dribble jumpers. He's eight of 20. So he's doing a little bit off the bounce. It's just like, A lot of those offensive questions.
