2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG

[SleepingHero]

Prediction:  Brooklyn is where Ace Bailey is trying to steer himself.  The Nets trade up to #4 to get him and Charlotte takes Maluach at #8.

Oooo that's a fun idea to think about.

Does Brooklyn really want to take a chance on Bailey when he obviously has attitude concerns? Does Charlotte take the risk that Maluach lasts till #8? 

I think Charlotte is going to take Maluach at #4. It just seems like something they'd do. Utah is 100% taking Kneuppel. And Washington all of a sudden rejoices because a top 3 prospect has fallen to #6 and they will 100% pick him up. 

So far my predictions on draft night:

1. DAL - Cooper Flagg
   
2. SAS - Dylan Harper
   
3. PHI - VJ Edgecombe 
   
4. CHA- Khaman Maluach
   
5. UTA - Kon Knueppel 
   
6. WAS -  Ace Bailey 
   
7. NOP -  Tre Johnson
   
8. BRK -  Egor Demin
