Projected No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg announced Monday on Instagram that he is declaring for the 2025 NBA draft after an outstanding freshman campaign at Duke.
Flagg led the Blue Devils to the Final Four, averaging 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.4 blocks on 38.5% shooting from 3-point range. He became the 22nd player in program history to be named a consensus first-team All-American.
The 6-foot-9 forward was named the John R. Wooden Award winner earlier this month as the most outstanding college basketball player in the country. He was also an All-ACC first-team selection and the ACC Player of the Year in 37 games.
