  • Cooper Flagg Locked Up The NBA Draft 1st Pick!

    Cooper Flagg Locked Up The NBA Draft 1st Pick!
    Jan 15 2025
    With a deep dive into the future of the NBA. All eyes are on Cooper Flagg, the top prospect out of Duke University—will he be the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft? The guys break down his game, compare him to other top prospects, and discuss the potential draft battle between Flagg, Dylan Harper, and Ace Bailey, two standout freshman at Rutgers who are quickly making their mark as future NBA stars. The guys shift gears to the latest happenings in the NBA, including a look at the Boston Celtics' recent performance and a prediction for their upcoming game against the Raptors. They also touch on the current NBA power rankings, giving their thoughts on the top teams and players so far this season. In this week's “Win In 7”, Ountae challenges Travis to guess the NBA player he’s thinking of through seven questions and a final silhouette reveal—can you guess the player before the big reveal? The Pistons are on the rise, sitting 8th in the Eastern Conference, and the duo discusses if Detroit can truly make a playoff push. With Cade Cunningham playing at an All-Star level, what’s different about this Pistons team, and what’s their next step? On the trade front, Jimmy Butler’s situation in Miami is heating up. Despite multiple offers for the star, Pat Riley hasn’t shown urgency to move Butler, and the player himself has made it clear he wants out. Where will Jimmy Butler end up, and what’s really going on behind the scenes in Miami? Travis and Ountae also give you their NBA League Pass picks—Travis calls Pacers at Pistons a game you won’t want to miss, while Ountae is all in on Magic at Bucks for the Giannis Antetokounmpo - Paolo Banchero showdown. Finally, Travis shares his thoughts on Anthony Edwards’ recent antics, why he's hurting his reputation in the league, and why you can’t be the face of the NBA if you’re playing the villain role.
