Cooper Flagg is the dynasty asset everyone wants
Few young forwards come with this kind of all-around game. What is a fair price for him today?
By Dana Whitfield · · 1 min read
Young forwards who can do a bit of everything are the most valuable pieces in dynasty basketball. Cooper Flagg fits that description, and Dallas has every reason to make him a central part of what comes next.
The appeal is the range of ways he can help. Scoring may take time to reach its peak, but defensive stats and rebounding often arrive early, so he can help a fantasy team while he develops.
If you own him, there is no reason to sell unless someone pays as if he is already a finished star. If you want him, be ready to pay in future picks. Players like this rarely come cheap.

I would wait another week before deciding, personally.

That's fair, though I still think the price is too high.

Sent this to my brother, who has been refusing to make this trade for a month.
