Cooper Flagg is headed on some official visits.

After reclassifying to the Class of 2024 from 2025, the Montverde (FL) Academy star has set visits to UConn, Kansas and Duke, his mother told ZAGSBLOG.

All three visits will occur before the start of the college basketball season in November.

The 6-foot-9 Flagg visited Duke — which features his former Montverde teammate Sean Stewart –– unofficially in August. Now he will return for their “Countdown to Craziness.”

Montverde (FL) Academy coach Kevin Boyle, who has coached three No. 1 picks, seven top-3 picks, nine lottery picks, 16 first-round picks and 19 current NBA players, said Flagg was “unique” among players he’s coached.

“He’s right up there with anyone [I’ve coached],” Boyle said. “His talent and his versatility makes him very unique. His size, his ability to fill up a stat sheet are incredibly special. He can have 10 points and be very instrumental with a handful of assists and deflections and blocked shots and defending the key player on the other team.

“He can be such an incredibly valuable player in today’s NBA world because of his versatility that is really unique.”
