The video captures a moment in the training match where Harper drives in from the left wing, drawing defenders before dishing a slick pass to Flagg. Flagg takes a step forward and slams home an emphatic, uncontested dunk. The two players dap each other up before getting right back into the game.

6-foot-9 forward Cooper Flagg is coming off his freshman year at Duke University. With the Duke Blue Devils, he averaged 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game. His performance led the Blue Devils to the ACC regular season title with a 19-1 record. They also made it to the NCAA tournament final four, but lost 70-67 against Houston.

In terms of personal accolades, Flagg was named the ACC Player of the Year and ACC Rookie of the Year. He became one of the only four players to win both awards in the same season.

6-foot-6 guard Dylan Harper is also coming off his freshman year with the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. He ended the season with an average of 19.4 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game.

In total, 106 players have filed for the 2025 NBA draft, which will be held on June 25 and 26 at the Barclays Center in New York.
