Cooper Flagg has been arguably the best college basketball player in the country at just 18. There is an excellent chance that he will be the first pick in the 2025 NBA Draft this summer. That said, former NBA All-Star DeMarcus Cousins thinks Flagg should stay in college (if the Utah Jazz don't get the top pick).

The Pelicans have some major decisions ahead, but none more important than what they do with their first-round pick, which could be their first top-five selection since taking Zion Williamson with the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NBA Draft.

Duke Blue Devils star freshman Cooper Flagg is widely expected to go No. 1 in the 2025 NBA draft. However, the door is still open for him to give it another go with Duke. Blue Devils fans surely prefer to see Flagg play for at least one more season in Duke colors than turn pro.
