Future outlook
Cooper Flagg showed brilliant flashes at the NBA Draft Combine on Tuesday as the former Blue Devil is poised to become the No. 1 overall pick in June's draft.
It's a good question, and it also involves projecting when Kyrie Irving comes back from his ACL tear. So let's assume Flagg is a Maverick and Irving returns a few months into the 2025-26 season. Let's run through the projected lineup:
Last year, Boston president Brad Stevens and his front office picked Baylor Scheierman at No. 30 overall and Anton Watson at No. 54 overall. Scheierman showed flashes near the end of his rookie season and could eventually become a rotation player. Watson was waived from his two-way contract and landed with the Knicks.
On this episode of Good Word with Goodwill, Vince and Blake Griffin react to the Dallas Mavericks winning the NBA Draft Lottery and what Cooper Flagg could expect as the potential No.1 pick. Later, Vince and Dwyane Wade take a look at Anthony Edward’s early success and why his slaying of legends such as LeBron James and Kevin Durant is so important.
