Sixteen-year-old basketball sensation Cooper Flagg has been climbing the ranks since his dominant displays in the Nike EYBL left scouts raving about the high schooler.
Flagg plays for the Montverde Academy, and at 6-foot-8, 195 pounds, he is a menace on the court. Though his rise to fame was quite sudden, the teenager rightfully deserved it, as his game resembles that of a college player.
Recently, Cooper Flagg was reclassified to the class of 2024. Not only that, but he has already made a strong case for being the top pick in the 2025 NBA draft.
Flagg has already had multiple offers from major schools, and the teenager's latest On3 NIL valuation has doubled.

Cooper Flagg has the second-most valuable NIL profile among all high school basketball players, as Bryce James sits on the top of the list, worth over $1.2 million.

"Brother he holds offers from everyone. Everywhere."
Flagg has offers from Duke, Iowa, Michigan, UCLA and other top schools nationwide. Though out of all teams, Flagg seems to be inclined towards Duke. He made an official visit to the campus, and as many suggest, we might see Flagg in a Blue Devils uniform.
Cooper Flagg proved himself again at the Slam Summer Classic

He also had 60 points on the high-scoring night.

Now the top high school prospect in the country and a five-star recruit, Flagg will have plenty of options next year. While some might suggest that the hype around Flagg is similar to Victor Wembanyama's, it won't be wrong to assume that he has the same attention as LeBron James got in high school. Regardless, seeing how Flagg's freshman year turns out will be interesting.
Cooper Flagg's potential is remarkable, as the teen has what it takes to play professionally at such a young age. Only time will tell how far Cooper can take his talents.
