But they are the same age. Cooper skipped Sr yr to go to Duke and AJ skipped

Fair at this point. We'll see if that changes next year

AJ is a better scorer right now

Well we’ve seen copper Flagg dominate against a higher level.

I expect that Cooper Flagg's year in college will be better than AJ's. But AJ will be the better pro

Before this year most with an opinion would say AJ.

AJ has a higher ceiling, but almost no chance he has a freshman year

Arenas is not known for tremendous judgment

Judging basketball talent and making good life decisions are two separate skills

If AJ improves his 3 pt shot, he'll be right there as a freshman.

Gilbert Arenas is correct as of this moment in time. Flagg has played a year at

I don't get why so many on this board believe that AJ has a higher ceiling
