The NBA’s 2025 Draft is viewed as more than good. It is viewed as historic and deep with solid prospects filling many of the 60 picks. There’s Cooper Flagg, the do-everything 6’8” forward out of Duke, of course, but also Rutgers’ two 5-star recruits, Ace Bailey, another 6’8” forward, and Dylan Harper, a 6’5” combo guard: Nolan Troare, the latest French sensation, also a 6’5” combo guard. Then, there’s fast-rising 6’4” Baylor shooting guard V.J. Edgecombe. and 7’2” big Khaman Maluach out of Duke and the NBA’s Basketball Africa League.
After a mediocre draft last month, NBA GMs and scouts have been salivating over the possibilities and as of this moment, no NBA team is in better shape than the Brooklyn Nets.
