This is an excellent video by the always superb J. Kyle Mann (seek out his other video breakdowns).
Discussed in the vid is the range of skills that Cooper Flagg possesses and that he pushes to always be better, taking the challenge of an increase in competition which is what you want to see from the very best type of players.
There doesn't seem to be the need for CF to be a number one scorer given his all-around game yet his scoring ability and potential has significantly increased recently.
One player comparison I hadn't considered before is Shawn Marrion, the AK47 comparison is on point as many have said and there's no point in comparing Flagg to anyone better such as all-time top 30 greats when Flagg is still only 17 and hasn't even played college ball yet.
Yet adding Cooper to the Nets in 2025 would be transformational for this franchise.
