The NBA Draft Lottery is set to take place on Monday evening, meaning in just a few days we will know the selection order for the 2025 NBA Draft and who will win the Cooper Flagg sweepstakes. In the meantime, teams are still busy scouting at all levels to build out their respective boards despite there still being some uncertainty.
The talent at the top of the 2025 NBA Draft is much more talented than last year’s group of players, with Dylan Harper being the clear No. 2 behind Flaff headlining this group. Beyond that duo of potential stars, there are several other players who will have the chance to move the needle for an NBA team if selected into the right system.
