Flagg has been the obvious No. 1 pick all season, but Harrison's decision to trade the 25-year-old Dončić for a 31-year-old Anthony Davis suggested that Dallas was all-in on the present. Had that been the case, Dallas could have offered Flagg for a number of veteran All-Stars, most notably Giannis Antetokounmpo should he become available.

The college basketball legend spoke about Flagg’s skill set a day after the Dallas Mavericks won the NBA draft lottery, setting themselves up to select Flagg with the top pick in June. Krzyzewski recalled seeing Flagg play at Montverde Academy as a high schooler.

After the season, as Flagg prepares for the NBA Draft, former Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski spoke with sports analyst Colin Cowherd. During the show, Krzyzewski revealed his thoughts on Flagg as an NBA prospect, reviewing his freshman season with the Blue Devils.
