Ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft, WRAL's Mark Bergin and Pat Welter broke down why Duke's Cooper Flagg is heralded as a draft prospect. They discuss how Flagg compares to other top prospects in previous years, like Victor Wembanyama and Zion Williamson.
The guys also discussed why Kon Knueppel's stock is rising on many NBA Draft boards. Knueppel is a solid shooter, even if he doesn't have the highest upside.
Bergin and Welter also talked about how Khaman Maluach looks to bring a strong defensive presence to whichever team drafts him.
They also analyzed UNC's Drake Powell, who posted a 43-inch vertical at the NBA Combine.
Other players with ties to the Triangle who could get picked include Duke's Tyrese Proctor and Sion James, along with UNC's RJ Davis.
