Mavericks Seal Off Cooper Flag for Entire Summer League Run

In his second appearance in Las Vegas, Cooper Flag demonstrated his superiority over the Summer League competition by scoring 31 points. The Mavericks agree and plan to rest Flag for the remainder of the Summer League, as reported by Marc Stein.

This decision is not unexpected. High draft picks usually participate in only a few Summer League games or sometimes skip them entirely. Teams often prioritize safeguarding their valuable new investment over the insights gained from a less structured and unpredictable game environment, so announcements like this are common.

Flag had a rough start in his first game against the Lakers, shooting just five for 21. This raised concerns about his shooting and his ability to create space and make jump shots against NBA-level defenders as the season approaches. However, despite being guarded by high-quality defender Carter Bryant, Flag improved significantly in the next game, scoring 31 points and leveraging free throws with 21 shot attempts.

His progression game by game is exactly what the Mavericks wanted to see, and they have now seen enough.

Fan Take: This update is crucial for basketball fans because it highlights the balance teams must strike between player development and injury prevention. Cooper Flag’s progress and the Mavericks’ cautious approach suggest a promising future for the young star, which could significantly impact the team’s success and the broader NBA landscape.
