About the episode

Over the years, the one-and-done era of college basketball has gifted us with some thrilling, must-see TV talent. Having been on the prospect radar for quite some time, Cooper Flagg—the lean, mean, shot-blocking machine from Newport, Maine—looks to be the next in line to muster up that level of excitement. His somewhat unprecedented blend of incendiary defensive tools and promising offensive upside craft a vision of a player who could impact winning at the highest levels of NBA competition—but as we know, these visions can often prove to be mirages. Is Cooper Flagg’s bid for stardom legitimate, or far-fetched? The Ringer’s J. Kyle Mann takes aim at finding out.
