Cooper Flagghttps://bolavip.com/en/topic/cooper-flagg hasnāt played a single minute of NBA basketball, but the fans have already seen him hold his own against NBA competition. He scrimmaged with Team USA in the offseason, and he was quite impressive.
That, plus his physical traits and skills, has positioned him atop the NBA Draft big boards for quite a while now. Barring a major turn of events, heās going to leave college basketball as the first-overall pick.
Recently, some stated that players like Dylan Harper could challenge that spot. However, college hoops analyst Rob Dauster argued that the only player who could seriously challenge him hasnāt even made his collegiate debut yet.
Only AJ Dybantsa could challenge Cooper Flagg as the top pick, says expert
āIf Iām picking, itās Cooper (Flagg), it is what it is. If AJ Dybantsa was in this draft class, it would be a different conversation. Those guys are a lot closer,ā Dauster said on DTF.

Dauster also tipped his hat to Dylan Harper, praising the Rutgers star as a potential superstar, even though heās not as highly touted as a prospect as Cooper Flagg:
āBut, Dylanās going to be an All-Star caliber player for a long time. The crazy thing about him is he makes the difficult look really easy and thatās kind of where his intrigue is. I think heās super talented. Heās a top-five pick,ā Dauste said.
