Cooper Flag lands in Dallas and predicts all 59 picks

The 2025 NBA Draft is just over a week and there are plenty of talents to make the draft up and down, so the class is one of the most loaded groups in recent memory.

Like last year, the 2025 NBA Draft will be held over two days with the first round set on June 25th, with the second round of the following afternoon.

Duke University’s outstanding The Cooper Flag is one of the best prospects in recent memoryjoins Victor Wenbanyama, Anthony Davis and LeBron James. There are no clear superstars after him, but there are plenty of high players who can have immediate and lasting impact on new teams.

The first NBA mock draft is already outdated as the Orlando Magic sent the 16th overall pick in the Desmond Bain trade to the Memphis Grizzlies. It remains posted for an updated version of the draft when players pull their name from the draft talent pool.

The Cooper Flag was a two-way unit and was expected to be their first overall pick long before his freshman season with the Duke Blue Devils. After winning the NCAA Player of the Year and Naismith Awards, Flagg is one of the most obvious top picks Recent memories.

He is a solid shooter and his outside shot (38.5%) may be the worst part of his game. Flag is expected to have an impact on Dallas Maverick soon, Mavs, who previously saw themselves as short-term candidates, should be a team to consider Flag will be leading the way for the next few years.

Flagg may be the first pick of consensus Dylan Harper is easily the second best player in the draft. As a complete combo guard, he found individual success with Rutgers by playing with the ball.

The San Antonio Spurs feature Harper, Stefon Castle and Daron Fox and will have a busy guard rotation, but the three are all solid defenders and versatile offensive players. Spurs around Victor Wenbagnama are expected to thrive They have a higher level of passersby than any other team in the NBA.

Flagg, Harper and Ace Bailey appear to be the top three picks in all the mock drafts. Bailey is a tough shot taker and a very important manufacturer.

He is not particularly athletic or physical, He is a solid defensive player and a great scorer.. Like Paul George, he can simply get a bucket and is expected to become the headline for the next generation of Philadelphia 76ers basketball, along with Tylese Maxey and Jared McCain.

Khaman Maluach was an outstanding starter for Duke Blue Devilsand he is the first pick we’ll deviate from the norm. With the Charlotte Hornets already having Lamelo Ball and Brandon Miller, the team needs interior force to close out the play at both ends of the floor.

Mallach is incredibly rawbut it’s been compared to Joel Embiid, and this year it’s one of Riser’s biggest drafts. The Hornets are not in a position to play safely. Also swing for the fence on the fourth pick.

Like Tre Johnson, Keyonte George, A true bucket getter. Both can be played on-ball, but the Utah Jazz can build the younger cores of Johnson, George, Isaiah Collier, Taylor Hendrix and the draft next season.

The Jazz will finish with the worst record in the league, earning their fifth overall pick and are expected to get worse again next season. It strengthened its younger rotation with Johnson, who averaged 19.9 points for the Texas Longhorns.

Johnson and Bailey can score from the whole floor, but Washington Wizard nab vj edgecombe Looks like Prime Russell Westbrook When he got his head full of steam. Unfortunately, for now, he’s filming like Prime Westbrook.

That’s plausible edgecombe has the best ceiling than anyone in the draftand with Bab Carrington, Keyshawn George and Alexandre Sarl already in town, the wizard slowly builds something special.

The Pelicans in New Orleans are in flux. Will they keep Zion Williamson? No one seems to know, but they don’t have time to wait around, but draft the fear of Jeremiah, The most promising player on the board.

Fear is fast, wiry, you can take off his shot from anywhere, and He makes the people around him better. Regardless of the direction the Pelicans go, fear is a reliable choice that should for some time be transformed into one of the better guards in the Southwest department.

Kon Knueppel is the third and final Duke player selected in the first round. He can be very easy The best shooter in the draft, And he’s not a bad defender.

If the internet trades up to choose another lottery ticket, Knueppel is a high-level floor spacer They draft to pair with others. If you win a sweepstakes for Giannis Antetokounmpo, it proves beneficial to have an elite shooter next to a Greek freak.

Is Immanuel Quickley a long-term solution at the Toronto Raptors’ point guard? His five-year contract suggests he is, but pay can easily be moved to find “big fish” this offseason.

This is Kaspar Jakučionis He is the best passerby in the draft class and a solid scorer.. He’s a rough, crude player who fits well with the Raptors’ younger core or could pair with winning players like Kevin Durant and Giannis.

After securing a second seed at the Western Conference, the Houston Rockets announced to the NBA that they will stay here, but their first round exit suggests that They have some internal improvements to prioritize.

If the rockets hold this pick, they have the luxury of adding a project player. Noah Essenge has the size, mobility and athletic ability to thrive, but he is still unpolished prospects. Luckily, Rocket has time to be patient, but Essenge was able to fire his gun with a gun due to Jabari Smith Jr.’s rotation location.

Is it too early to declare Scoot Henderson a bust? The Portland Trail Blazers may not be ready to admit that. And if they’re not ready to draft an alternative to Henderson this year, They managed to grab Colin Murray Boydles, who could replace Jerami Grant. While he’s old.

Murray Boyles is A solid athlete with the potential to be out of the flooralthough his calling card is his physical defense. He was able to reminisce about the physical “Prison Blazers” that was obviously physical, except for off-court issues.

The NBA Combine was not friendly to Derrick Queen, but the Combine does not have any exercises to measure the clutch the Queen has on the spade.

The Chicago Bulls have backcourt cores of Josh Giddy, Lonzoball and Coby White Queen is a solid rebounder and a lob threat He also pushed out Nikola Vosevic, allowing the bull to ultimately commit to the youth.

Thomas Solver missed much of his freshman season with a leg injury, He is still one of the better centers in the country. He averaged 14.5 points and 8.5 rebounds for Georgetown.

With Solver, Jalen Johnson, Zaccharie Risacher, Trae Young, and Dyson Daniels. The Atlanta Hawks are ready to compete on both ends of the floorespecially at weak Eastern Conference.

Maxime Raynaud is a giant standing human 7 feet-1. The San Antonio Spurs need a backup center, and while Raynaud might be 14th overall, he’s a close friend of Victor Wenbagnama from the court.

Can you use the 14th pick to soothe the best players great ideas? However, it is not usually the case Raynaud is a solid player who meets the position of need.and Wenbanyama will be prioritized in San Antonio.

Like Raynaud and Essenge, the Oklahoma City Thunder can afford to miss the pick, but Danny Wolf, who is 15th overall, is in reach.

Wolf is a big mobile player Who can block some shots and pass the ball like a point guard. His external shots and defensive versatility require some work, but the Thunder is in a position to roll the dice in the next Nikola Jokic.

For now, the Grizzlies boast five starting five: Ja Morant, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Jaylen Wells, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Zach Edey. They could use their defense to help Jackson Jr., and after a down year in Orlando, the KCP may not be the former elite defender.

The Grizzlies predict that they will draft based on their team identity. Nike Clifford is System players who don’t care about doing dirty work, This is exactly the type of player Memphis has loved for a long time, dating back to the days of grit and green.

After the Grizzlies pass by Liam McNeely, the Timberwolves add him. He shot only 31.7% because of his lonely college season. He is expected to become a deadly shooter if he finds his footing.

Offering kickout options to Anthony Edwards, the spacing around Rudy Gobert seems easy, and the wolves create smart picks.

ASA Newell is one of the best athletes in the 2025 draft class, and the Wizard as a young team drafts the best players. Newell is an excellent secondary defender, an open-floor beast.

He’s not the best half-court offensive player, but hopefully the Wizard will remain patient and Newell has plenty of time to find his footing.

After playing for Michigan State Spartan, listed as 6-foot-3, combined rafts were actually Jace Richardson. It’s incredibly small for off-ball players.

but, He can make the floor space and should be a solid scorer Next to Cam Thomas. When Kon Knueppel films the rocks, Brooklynnet ends up having a lovely, offensive core of young people.

Tyler Hero took over the Miami Heat’s point guard mission, and although it wasn’t a complete disaster (he made an All-Star Game!), the Heat missed the playoffs.

Along with shooters and scorers such as Hero, Bam Adebayo, Duncan Robinson and Andrew Wiggins on the roster, the Heat will need Bed General Egor Demin. Despite his under-complete college season, he saw his draft stock tank, he is one of the best passersby in the draft class.rivals Yakutionis.

In the case of Jazz Trade Walker Kessler, Bellinger will take his place. He is a solid shot blocker, a rebounder and a much better athlete.

He’s a very raw player and will probably spend time in the G League.the Jazz is in a hurry and there’s no delusion that they’ll win many games next season, but Bellinger simply rounds out the core as he hopes the lottery next season will be more friendly.

The Hawks are not a winner despite their undeniable talent. Aside from the Furchlank to the 2021 Conference Finals, fans didn’t have much to celebrate.

Walter Clayton Jr. You can lead the Florida Gators to a national title and play the ball next to Young or Danielshe will certainly come off the bench for his rookie season. His external shot is a reliable 38.6%, and even if it gets soaked it will be serviceable.

The Indiana Pacers are expected to hold Miles Turner in free agency, but their frontcourts can still use more depth, even if he returns. Rasheer Fleming is a solid scorer, rebounder and shooter Someone who can block shots despite being only 6 feet 9.

He’s not the best ball handler, Prosper in the universeperfectly suits the fast play style of the pacer. Alongside Tyrese Halliburton or TJ McConnell, Fleming should go well.

Thunder will keep flyers for players who are often overlooked for this second draft. Will Riley didn’t start for Illinois’ Fighting Illini, but he won the Big 10 Sixth Man of the Year honors.

He’s a rough, physical player, but his external shots need work. Who should quickly carve out the role on the Thunder bench.

On the 16th pick, the Magic drafted Clifford. Clifford shot 37.7% from Deep, but is known for his defense. On the 25th pick, they choose Cedric Coward, another player who spent several years in college.

Co-sick people are the opposite of Clifford A solid archer and an underrated defender. Magic requires shooting, he delivers, but he can also hold himself on the other side of the ball.

If the net doesn’t trade up, it’s harder to do better than Carter Bryant on the 26th pick. He is an excellent and fast athlete with solid shots.

If he ran more in college, He only played 19.3 minutes per game and averaged 6.5 points per game, but he would be chosen sooner. The net is very raw so it should have some pause in the net.

After choosing Bryant with little experience, the net turned and added Ryan Calbrenner, who spent five years with four Claytons as a starter.

He is Thank you for being an elite shot blocker and interior scorer, mainly a true 7 footer. He doesn’t have the highest speed or athletic ability and doesn’t have any space on the floor, but if he lives on his potential he could secure the paint for years to come.

Depending on who the Boston Celtics trade to cut their pay, the starting lineup could have an opening, but deep teams could allow more experienced players to intervene, even Jason Tatum.

Noappenda is like that You can reach oversized forwards, shots, passes and rims that can handle the ball. But he He lacks fierce athletic ability He landed in a major developmental situation in Boston, but it had to be his previous pick.

The Phoenix Suns need a point guard. Thaius Jones isn’t a long-term option, but Hugo Gonzalez didn’t get much playing time for Real Madrid. He is a great ball handler that you can create for yourself.

He’s not a real point guard, but he and Devin Booker are in the backcourt, but there should be no shortage of scoring or facilitation. Even if it’s Sands’s own fault, for the Lac Lac Lac franchise, Gonzalez’s fall on the 29th is a rare stroke of luck.

The Los Angeles Clippers will be coming down at least in pix swaps this year, but still owes the whole future this year. On the final pick in the first round, they add Israeli standout Ben Saraf.

Saraf averaged 12.8 points and 4.6 assists at ULM, with 4.6 assists, but his scoring efficiency is a major area of ​​concern. He is a solid defender who can play in either guard spot and will likely be the center of the Clippers. Their core is to continue to age.
