I am going to add something to this.
People might actually need to hit the break a little on Copper Flagg hype. I saw the word generational several times here, or best American prospect since Lebron.
He might turn this way, but right now I just don't see it.
He is closer to AD type of prospect than a Luka type of prospect IMHO. People forget the insane hype AD got while in college, I actually think with all success AD had he was underwhelming in comparison to what he achieved.
For me CP is a sure fire All Star who will have All NBA team in his resume, and has very little weaknesses to his game. There is no doubt about it. This is great and Franchise saving player in itself, but it is still a level below generational.
I hope we are planning around him with that in mind tbh.
