Why Cooper Flagg will change the NBA | Slam N Jam

And the way that he came on late in the year, being more of the primary for Michigan state, who has been awesome throughout the year in the big 10. I, if he has a big tournament run, we could be talking about him as like a top six, top seven type player in this class for sure.

Then other teams are like, Oh my God, look at his shot making and like, look at his ability to hit threes and everything like that. Like he's a guy that, there's a real mix on Jace Richardson, another guy that's, you know, just up and down for teams, Derek queen, unsurprisingly, he's like a six foot 10 big man who is probably 245 pounds and has incredibly sweet feet, but doesn't defend really.

Huh. Okay. So, like, Spot Shooter I would say the guy that I trust most is actually a guy that might go undrafted in Kobe Brea at Kentucky. I'll pull up his numbers while I'm talking, but the shot is just unbelievable. He just drills everything, it feels like to me. This year, he's at 44% from three. Last year, he was at 49.8% from three. Six attempts per game. Just an absolute sniper.

In terms of pull-up shooting, I would say that that's actually the one thing in this class in terms of shooting that I don't love. I think that where I'm at is like there is just a real case.
