Hopefully they don't get the 1st overall pick.
New Orleans has already had two consensus 1st overall picks in the last 15 years. Since 2010 only Wembanyama was more of a clear cut franchise player than AD, Zion & Flagg.
Cue the "they can't keep getting away with this" meme if they land Flagg. Just wouldn't be fair.

Yep, that’s what we always say here. Us Pels are so lucky.

Aside from Wemby those are the top three prospects of the last 15 years. You want all three? So another player’s career can be ruined? Greedy. Imagine drafting a player like Bargnani first overall. That’s what that franchise deserves not another franchise level player. The league needs Flagg to go to a team that will capitalize on his talent and potential, not waste it away. Sorry but it’s not what is best for the league.

Yeah, we should let Dallas win the lottery and see what they do with a star.
