Cooper Flagg is already making NBA headlines after being the No. 1 overall pick out of Duke last summer.

Who will be the guy to have his named called first by Adam Silver in the 2026 NBA Draft?

Well, BetOnline.ag has set odds for nine players, and two are sizable favorites.

AJ Dybantsa from BYU has long been considered the favorite to go first, but Kansas' Darryn Peterson is currently in the top spot.

Cameron Boozer, Carlos' son and twin of Cayden Boozer, is the only other player with better than 20/1 odds. The Boozers will showcase their talents at their dad's alma mater, Duke, this season.

Jayden Quaintance 20/1

Mikel Brown Jr 25/1
