Flagg staying in school another year to avoid Hornets & Wizards?

[Miggs]

Also Hornets and Wizards will both be in the running for the #1 in 2026 so youre going back for the same thing to happen again next year....does he go back for his junior year then ?

Y’all do this every year and then complain when NBA media only focuses on big markets

He would be a dumb ass not to play with melo

now if the Wiz get number 1

melo is not who yall think he is lol
yall nikkas dont know basketball

Who do you think i think he is?

 

[Ohene]

Who do you think i think he is?

ii think that you think he is some kinda cornerstone or great player but he really isnt.
he's an injury prone chucker who doesnt make his teammates better

As I was watching him last night I thought to myself how thankful I was I don't have to watch him play for the Wolves every night and convince myself that I like him.


Ugliest game in the NBA.

Who he gon make better on that trash team?

When he did have a healthy squad with decent talent as a 2nd year player he got Charlotte to the play in

That makes no sense. Get the money first and foremost.

 

[L. Deezy]

I dont even wish the Wizards on this dude... thats cruel

 

[MJ Truth]

Multi millions better than nil

Of course it's better, but he's getting to those multi millions regardless.

 

[Black]

Wizard culture is changing I want Bailey or Harper though.

 

[beenz]

The money from the NIL and staying the extra year wouldn't make up for the money he'd lose out on delaying his NBA free agency especially with the cap continuing to rise.

It makes no financial sense.

if he has any type of financial advisor on his team, no one would ever advise to spend another year at duke vs being the #1 overall pick. that's dumb as hell.

me @42 Monks @Jparker @Henry Orbit need this

Cac needs to leave that’s not how college basketball works anymore

Sign up to be the 4th pick brehs This is an uninformed and silly take.

1- From next year’s class, AJ Dybansta has been seen as just as generational as Flagg. And now Daryn Peterson is actually getting pushed ahead of him. That boy is smooth af. And then you got Nate Ament who’s the next KD clone. If I had to guess I think it’d go AJ-Peterson-Flagg.
At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the Mavs. And they’d be without Luka, AD, and Kyrie. And won’t have a boatload of picks. I

Good point. There's really no reason in the world to stay another year when you're the #1 pick. Maybe if you're on a super stacked squad that's favored to win a national championship. Even then, aint shyt guaranteed. Health included. A chip would be nice...but Duke would just as much love to have a #1 pick on their resume. Either way I can't wait for the Draft Lottery in May.

Only way Dallas gettin that pick is the ol' "Cold Envelope." Which they deserve for doing what's right for the league and gifting Luka to the Lakers.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Well, Hornets and Wizards gonna be even worse next season.

Exactly.

It’s not like staying an extra year gets him to the Lakers. So good look playing for one of the 15 trash teams in the league and hope you go to a city that doesn’t suck
