Wednesday was a monumental night for many prospects in the NBA draft, but two players who stole the spotlight in the top four were former Duke stars Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel. Flagg was selected No.

In 2019, Duke produced Zion Williamson (No. 1 to New Orleans Pelicans ), RJ Barrett (No. 3 to New York Knicks) and Cam Reddish (No. 10 to Atlanta Hawks ). In 2007, Florida produced Al Horford (No. 3 to Hawks), Corey Brewer (No. 7 to Minnesota Timberwolves) and Joakim Noah (No. 9 to Chicago Bulls ).

Forward Cooper Flagg was selected by the Dallas Mavericks with the No. 1 pick, forward Kon Knueppel went to the Charlotte Hornets with the fourth pick, while center Khaman Maluach was selected 10th by the Houston Rockets and re-routed to the Phoenix Suns. Mauluach specifically showed plenty of emotion.
