With highly advanced defensive skills, standing tall at 6-foot-8, and boasting impressive high school numbers, Cooper Flagg's potential makes him a compelling college and pro prospect. It is undeniable that there is merit in focusing on him.

On August 11th, Flagg officially made the decision to reclassify himself as part of the 2024 class. This move was an obvious choice for him, as it provides him with the opportunity to embark on his next basketball journey earlier and eventually reach the professional level. 

 
Given Flagg’s exceptional talent, both colleges and professional programs are likely eager to secure his services, even if it's just for a single season. 
 
Currently, insiders in college basketball circles have speculated that the Blue Devils are leading the competition, although they still have significant work ahead of them in order to secure the top basketball prospect in the market.
