Flagg, who hasn’t played a single second in the NBA, is ranked higher than players like Paul George, LaMelo Ball, Zion Williamson, and Myles Turner. This is putting a lot of pressure on Flagg to perform right away once he steps on an NBA court.

Will Flagg live up to expectations? That remains to be seen.
