DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS, JUL 13 – The Mavericks ended Flagg's Summer League after two games to preserve his health for the regular season; he averaged 20.5 points and 5 rebounds, sources said.
- Cooper Flagg appeared in two games during the 2025 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, with his final outing taking place on July 12 at the Thomas & Mack Center.
- The Mavericks have opted to end Flagg’s participation in the Summer League early to limit his workload and reduce risk, despite some fans expressing disappointment online.
- Flagg had a challenging debut against the Lakers scoring 10 points on 5-of-21 shooting but bounced back with a game-high 31 points against the Spurs.
- Across those two contests, he posted averages of 20.5 points, five rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.5 steals, and one block, and after the final game, he reflected on adjusting to the change in surroundings and atmosphere.
- The decision to end Flagg's Summer League run suggests the Mavericks prioritize his long-term health and development, with fans likely not seeing him again until the preseason or the November 1 NBA Mexico City Game.
