Anyone who's 6'9" with that agility, ambidexterity, and shooting touch definitely has star potential in the NBA. I would like to see if he can do stepback jumpers or fadeaway shots, as those are typical moves of players who can create their own shots.

[@forreal_0]

Yeah, he's good at everything he can do step back threes,fades, pull-ups,and even ridiculous layups

[@jamesgriffin5620]

Cooper’s timing and ability to block shots is insane and almost his most impressive attribute.

[@ohiotaquayvion971]

that boy can have a great nba career if he stays healthy

[@chrisaustin4115]

Yeah hopefully he's got good trainers or can get them

[@theesotaricitalian6338]

He's definitely not gona be a center in the nba, you either dont know his game really at all, or you don't understand basketball at all. In fact he won't even be a 4. He's primarily going to be a small forward who can sometimes play the 4 in certain lineups. He's also only 6'8 to 6'9 right now, though he might grow a bit more, but even if he does he won't be a center

[@Bank2ki]

@@theesotaricitalian6338 who said he was ever going to be a center? and hes 6'10 weirdo

[@theesotaricitalian6338]

@bank2k531 I was replying to a comment that said he'd be a great center and no he's not listed at 6'10 he's listed at either 6'8 or 6'9 depending where you look. Thought he's only 16 he might get even taller certainly. I hate Internet tough guy talkers, lol 😆 yeah you fell tough calling ne a weirdo behind you keyboard. Smh I'm sure that's the only place you can randomly call people names for no reason at all.

[@cdaa1011]

Andrei Kirilenko x Chandler Parsons x Chet Holmgren (minus the calcium and Vitamin D deficiency) = Cooper Flagg

[@theesotaricitalian6338]

He's offensive game is already way more refined then all of theirs and he's also already a much better shooter, and he's even better defensively then all of them already too, minus Andrei. I hate when people label or classify people solely on their race without paying attention to anything else. People do this with black Quarterbacks too, which is just as ridiculous. Either learn the sport just a little or stfu 🤷 what your doing is not only lazy, it's also pretty ridiculous.

[@cdaa1011]

@@theesotaricitalian6338 how is he better offensively than any of those players already? he’s 16 years old going against other 16 year olds and high schoolers. he hasn’t proven anything on the D1 college or NBA level. So your claim that he’s already more offensively and defensively advanced that any of those three players listed is incredibly stupid.

[@timboslice8559]

Totally agree. Defensively he’s Kirilenko, but with Parsons offense on crack. Nothing like Holmgren though who’s 7’1

[@kevinreid6223]

Okay 👌if he stays healthy, and I shouldn't be saying this because the kid is tremendously gifted. Work his 3 pt shot more. Because I've read he shoots 37% from the 3. Then again it seems as if America has fallen out of love with Americans white big men. Because I can't name one. Hopefully he stays healthy and work with on his footwork. He's attending duke. So we know he might be one and done.
