Cooper Flagg, Guard, Dallas Mavericks: 86 OVR (+1)

Flagg had a strong end to January, scoring 49 points against the Charlotte Hornets. While the Mavericks haven’t had a great season, Flagg is demonstrating improvement as he gains experience. Considering he’s only 18 and has sometimes been asked to play a different position than he’s used to, he’s holding his own against more established players. However, we anticipate continued development from the number one draft pick as he matures.

Trey Murphy III, Forward, New Orleans Pelicans: 86 OVR (+2)

Rumors are flying about a possible trade involving the 25-year-old forward, but it seems unlikely the Pelicans would want to part with such a promising young player. They actually need more players like him to break out of their current losing streak. Murphy is currently averaging an impressive 21.9 points per game, just a little behind Zion Williamson.

Victor Wembanyama, Center/Forward, San Antonio Spurs – 96 OVR (+1)

Victor Wembanyama is quickly becoming one of the league’s top players, and the Spurs are having a promising season. He’s currently averaging 24.3 points and over 11 rebounds per game, continuing to impress everyone. The Spurs will likely depend heavily on his performance as they strive to reach the playoffs.
