Because of the success of Cooper Flagg, it's been a popular approach in the past few months to put together an all-time Duke Blue Devils men's basketball roster. ESPN's Myron Medcalf took the latest shot at it, and it's certainly quite the dream team.

With that in mind, the legendary Shaquille O'Neal spoke out and weighed in on Flagg and his future with the Mavericks. As shared by Alyssa Cooper of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, O'Neal is a big fan of Flagg landing in Dallas.

Maine basketball star Cooper Flagg is set to make waves at the ESPN ESPY Awards on Wednesday night in Los Angeles. The Newport-native is nominated for two prestigious awards: Best Breakthrough Athlete and Best College Athlete.

This list is centered around what these players accomplished in their careers with the Blue Devils, not what they went on to do in the NBA. Paolo Banchero, Jayson Tatum, Brandon Ingram, Vernon Carey and Grayson Allen are among the notable names that just missed the list.

While sitting courtside watching Flagg's first minutes in Las Vegas, ex-Mavs owner Mark Cuban envisioned that the Duke product would have a comparable development track to a young Kobe Bryant. Although the comparison makes sense on the surface, it'd be stunning if it came to fruition.

Duke basketball coach Jon Scheyer talks about the impact Cooper Flagg had on him as a coach during his one and only year at Durham.
