New York Knicks legend Carmelo Anthony revealed his thoughts on upcoming Duke player Cooper Flagg.
Anthony: "17-year-old practicing with the Olympic Team. LeBron didn't practice with the Olympic Team at 17-years-old... He's the real deal. Me personally, I want him to enjoy this journey right now. Enjoy Duke, enjoy college, go try to destroy the ACC. If you're there, you may as well try to go get everything, and then in eight months, nine months you'll be right here."
Anthony is one of the greatest players of all time so his thoughts on prospects will always carry a lot of weight.: "He looked like a hell of a player. Somebody that's going to only get better with more experience. 17 years old coming in here playing like he's a vet almost. No emotion. Just going out there and doing his job. That's a good sign."
"That is a bad dude. He's a generational talent. ... Next year, America ... you're going to listen and see him every single night." The ten-time NBA All-Star is one of the greatest scorers of all time and played 19 seasons for the Lakers, Knicks, Thunder, Trail Blazers, Rockets and Nuggets.
