Did The Mavericks Draft The Next MVP In Cooper Flagg Or The Next Scottie Pippen? (ft. Andy Bailey)

On the Friday sports edition of ‘Will Cain Country,’ Will is joined by NBA Writer at Bleacher Report, Andy Bailey, to break down the NBA Draft, especially the selection of Cooper Flagg.

Will asks, if Flagg isn’t elite at one specific skill, can he really be a number one player in the NBA? Bailey believes that Flagg’s competitiveness, IQ, and all-around game make him one of the safest, high-upside picks in years. They debate his fit in Dallas, his ceiling, and whether he’s closer to an MVP in the making or just Scottie Pippin 2.0.

Will also asks Andy his top NBA prospects from the last decade and where Flagg fits in that list, as well as how players like Jokic and Giannis slipped through the cracks, and whether the NBA is bad at spotting true talent or if projecting stardom is just harder in basketball.
