The 2025 recruiting class hosts a plethora of great young players, including Cooper Flagg, who's the No. 2 ranked prospect. He showcased his skills at the Peach Jam tournament recently, surprising the fans and scouts that were in attendance.
Flagg grew up in Newport, Maine, and spent his freshman year at Nokomis Regional High School. His mother, Kelly, played college basketball in his home state where she was a team captain during her senior year.
Flagg has a twin brother named Ace, who also plays basketball. The twins have an older brother, Hunter, who played high school basketball for Nokomis, where he finished his senior year.
Flagg transferred to Montverde Academy following his freshman year. Before he was able to play for the school, the young prospect showed his talents at the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League. After posting 21 points, five rebounds, five steals and three assists, he was named the MVP of the 2023 Hoophall Classic.
Cooper's been compared to Larry Bird for his incredible scoring prowess and defensive tenacity. Since he was little, he expressed an interest in playing for the Duke Blue Devils. Even though he isn't finished with high school, he's already received an offer from Duke.
The 6-foot-8 forward is one of three high school sophomores who has received an offer from the school. The other two are the sons of former NBA star Carlos Boozer: Cayden and Cameron.
Cooper Flagg recently showed off more of what he can produce on both ends of the floor. During the Pearl Jam Tournament, he had a triple-double, with 38 points, 16 rebounds, 12 blocks and six assists. He capped off an impressive two-way performance with a game-winning block to earn the win.
