Cooper Flagg is the consensus first overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. Unlike the 2024 edition, next year's NBA draft is highly anticipated, and Flagg is one of the main reasons. He declassified to get drafted a year earlier.

Flagg is the 17-year old member of Team USA Select that got the superstars raving. He scored 17 points against what would be the most talented team assembled today. However, Team USA's Olympic bid is not the topic at hand. The question is whether the Philippines will have a Cooper Flagg in the future, and if this PBA 2024 Draft is the deepest in the decade.
