Cooper Flagg made his highly anticipated debut for the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday in the NBA 2K26 Summer League against the Los Angeles Lakers and Bronny James.
The matchup, which boasted the highest average ticket price for a summer league game since Victor Wembanyama's debut, saw Flagg score a massive dunk for his first points as a pro. Flagg, the No. 1 pick in the 2025 draft, finished with 10 points, six rebounds and four assists as Dallas bested Los Angeles, 87-85. James finished with eight points, two rebounds and two assists.
