Cooper Flagg is set to make his much-anticipated NBA debut against the San Antonio Spurs tonight. The two hated rivals had the top two picks in the 2025 NBA Draft, with Flagg going to the Mavs and Dylan Harper going to the Spurs. Flagg is expected to take home the Rookie of the Year award, thanks to Jason Kidd putting him in a position to do so already, but it seems Flagg is already understanding his assignment to do whatever he can to help make the Mavs unstoppable.
Flagg is already a high-IQ player, and he recently proved that by mentioning Anthony Davis for how he can master the Dallas offense.
