Cooper Flag Launches His Pro Journey with a Bang in NBA Summer League Showdown Against Bronnie James

Cooper Flag took a walk to the Mack Center at UNLV with Thomas around 4:17 pm on Thursday, dressed in Dallas Mavericks attire and bright white New Balance shoes, maintaining a calm expression as he passed through security. About 45 minutes later, he kept the same stoic demeanor during warm-ups just after 5 pm at the NBA Summer League.

His enthusiastic fans energized the packed arena, cheering loudly when he was announced as a starter. Early in the game, Flag missed his first two shots and committed a foul within 46 seconds. Fan favorite Bronnie James capitalized on Flag’s mistakes, helping the Lakers take a 5-0 lead with a 3-pointer after Flag’s second error.

Flag scored his first basket at the 4:30 mark, following it up with a midrange fadeaway while falling to the floor. The arena, mostly filled with Lakers supporters, had a notable presence of Mavericks fans eager to watch the 2025 National College Player of the Year.

Before the game, Mavericks coach Jason Kidd emphasized looking for effort and grit rather than perfection in the team’s opening game. Kidd noted the difference this summer in the league’s atmosphere but wanted to see how players handled mistakes, prioritizing learning over flawless play.

Kidd expressed excitement about Flag, praising his performance on tape and looking forward to seeing him play live. The report was provided by the Associated Press.

Fan Take: This game highlights the emergence of Cooper Flag as a promising young talent, bringing fresh energy to the NBA Summer League. Basketball fans should watch closely, as players like Flag could shape the future of the sport with their skills and resilience.
