Victor Wembanyama - English
Cooper Flagg has officially declared himself eligible for the 2025 NBA Draft, and it is a fact that the Duke Blue Devils star will be the first overall pick. Under this scenario, we enter a stage of speculation about what the destination of the Naismith National Player of the Year will be because we do not have certainty about which team will choose him, as the draft lottery has not yet taken place, and it is scheduled for May 12.
That was filthy! Luka and LeBron look helpless as a Minnesota center hits a perfect 3-pointer
Flagg and Wembanyama together? The Spurs would be a super team
Now, an NBA insider at ESPN, Bobby Marks, has raised the idea of the former Duke player playing for the San Antonio Spurs, which would be crazy to see him play alongside another generational talent like Victor Wembanyama.
“Well, it’s gonna upset the teams-Washington [Wizards], Charlotte [Hornets], New Orleans [Pelicans]-Because I’m gonna say San Antonio,” Marks said during BNA Today. “If you pair Cooper Flagg with Victor Wembanyama, and you pair him with De’Aaron Fox-that is a formidable big three. And certainly from a defensive standpoint.
“And I think we forget, they got two cracks. They got that Atlanta pick too at 14! So, they can go 8 and 14 and maybe jump up there to the top pick there,” he added.
Of course, it would be spectacular for fans to see Flagg included alongside the French player and De’Aaron Fox. However, luck would have to smile on them greatly for this to happen.
The San Antonio Spurs finished with the eighth-worst record in the NBA during the 2024-2025 season, and they have only a 6% chance of obtaining the number one pick. There are seven other teams with better odds, although the Spurs technically have two chances, as they also own Atlanta’s first-round pick in 2025, as a result of the Dejounte Murray trade in 2022.
The most likely scenario for the team is that they make their selections at the eighth and 14th spots in the Draft, but it doesn’t hurt to dream because anything can happen in the lottery.

My jsme o tom samozřejmě věděli, ale bylo to takové, že to ještě nebylo ze soupeřovy strany oficiálně podepsané. Tolik jsem nevěřil tomu, že Mateusz se mnou vezme zápas, protože mu to podle mého nedává až takový smysl. Nikam ho to neposune.

No edge rushers for Lions on NFL Draft Day 2 as Brad Holmes sticks to his plan
ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Brad Holmes and the Detroit Lions war room were spotted wearing hoodies that read “HWS” — height, weight, speed — crossed out. The Lions typically coordinate their apparel during draft weekend. They’ve worn “positional villain” hoodies. They’ve collectively worn Dan Campbell jerseys, perhaps an ode to drafting Dan Campbell guys. So when Holmes emerged Friday at the end of night two, he explained the latest draft-related message.Advertisement“Height, weight, speed — it is the opposite of film evaluation, and we’re all about film evaluation,” Holmes said. “That’s the hard part of scouting. Height, weight, speed is easy. Stats are easy. A position listed is easy. But film evaluation is hard to figure out.”The Lions believe in film. They believe it doesn’t lie. The film told them that Georgia guard Tate Ratledge and Arkansas wide reciever Isaac TeSlaa […]
With Game 3 win, Devils show resolve that could benefit them long beyond the playoffs
NEWARK, N.J. — Friday night’s double-overtime victory doesn’t mean the New Jersey Devils will win this series. It doesn’t even mean they’ll reach Game 6. They are still the heavy underdogs and trailing 2-1 against a Carolina Hurricanes team that is healthier and has more recent playoff success. Not many people would bat an eye if Carolina won the next two games and sent the Devils home for the summer.AdvertisementBut that doesn’t change the importance of New Jersey’s Game 3 win. It’s the type of game that will stick with players on the roster, from overtime hero Simon Nemec — a healthy scratch earlier this series — to Jonas Siegenthaler, who played his first game since February, to young players like Paul Cotter and Cody Glass, who took their first-ever playoff overtime shifts.It’s the type of win that builds the […]

Hall four strokes off lead as Korda makes the cut at Chevron Championship
England's Georgia Hall is just four strokes off the lead while Nelly Korda moved inside the cut after two rounds of the Chevron Championship.Hall followed her opening 69 with a 72 to sit four strokes off the lead, but Charley Hull dropped to four-over par, one behind Scotland's Gemma Dryburgh. The cut is projected to come at two-over with nine players still to finish their second rounds after thick fog delayed the start of play.

Eagles see Andrew Mukuba as a physical, disciplined safety; stockpiled Day 3 picks with trades
PHILADELPHIA — Howie Roseman strode into the auditorium with a grin, with a quip prepared for the bleary-eyed reporters who stuck around the NovaCare Complex into the wee hours of the NFL Draft’s second night only for the Philadelphia Eagles general manager to trade out of the third round.“Rest up for next year, Friday night, because we are working next year on Friday night,” Roseman said.AdvertisementIndeed, Day 2 in 2026 is scheduled to be a marathon. The Eagles have a second round pick and three other selections in the third round. They’ve never had more than three in a given draft since Roseman was first named general manager in 2010. Next year promises to offer more flare than Friday night did. The Eagles spent the No. 64 pick on Texas safety Andrew Mukuba, then used Nos. 96 and 134 within a series […]
