Summary

On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones is joined by Tom Haberstroh of Yahoo Sports to discuss the 2025 NBA Draft. The show begins with Tom assessing Cooper Flagg as a prospect (1:54) and why he compares to Kevin Garnett (4:02). They move onto criticizing the New Orleans Pelicans trade (15:30), if "Chinese Jokic" could dominate the NBA (23:56) and UNC's struggles with sending impact players to the league (28:05). After the break, Tom shares why Wake Forest actually has the highest hit rate for quality NBA talent (35:45) and why selecting a player whose dad played in the NBA often works out (40:33). Bo and Tom round out the show by ridiculing the younger generation of basketball players for lacking personality (52:54) and if we collectively forgot to hate on Cooper Flagg for going to Duke.
