Summary: Flagg is a do-it-all forward who hustles like a madman, makes his teammates better as a passer, and has dialed in a knockdown jumper. He’s both the best offensive and defensive prospect in this draft class, making him the safest No. 1 pick in ages. It’s his growth as a shot creator that will decide if he reaches his All-Star floor or soars to his Hall of Fame ceiling.
Comparisons: Scottie Pippen, Tom Chambers, Andrei Kirilenko
Strengths
Motor and toughness: Flagg never stops hustling. He’ll dive for loose balls, take a charge, and fly out of nowhere for rebounds.
