Add Cooper Flagg to a @dallasmavs roster that will include Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, Derrick Lively, Daniel Gafford, Naji Marshall, Klay Thompson & P.J. Washington & what do have?
An instant title contender.

The NBA Draft Lottery has spoken, but how will Cooper Flagg, Giannis and that No. 10 Suns pick going to the Rockets affect Kevin Durant’s trade market? Here are a BUNCH of hypothetical trades, featuring dark horse suitors and crazy 3-team deals: bit.ly/43eWJCM – 12:03 PM

Something I just realized is that the Rockets, Spurs and Thunder all have slightly less to trade now than they did a few hours ago.
All of them controlled future Mavericks picks that looked really valuable before Cooper Flagg showed up. – 11:51 PM

Finally done writing tonight (I think) and just realized: Cooper Flagg and Paige Bueckers. You gotta be kidding me. – 10:25 PM

The Dallas Mavericks could do the funniest thing and pick someone other than Cooper Flagg because “defense wins championships” – 10:15 PM

1.8% chance to win the NBA Lottery the Mavs get the 1st pick! Wow! The odds? The Knicks got the first pick in 1985 with the David Stern frozen envelope! Let the conspiracy theories begin. Sorta makes the Fans forget about that other THING! Cooper Flagg better a Nowitski and Luka. – 9:55 PM

Get’cha pre-orders in for @espn_macmahon’s Cooper Flagg memoir, coming in the next 5-6 years, wherever you can buy books. Hopefully, this one will have the final chapter included at the time of publication. – 7:43 PM

Just a devastating result for the Heat.
They would have had the No. 11 lottery slot if they had missed the playoffs. Instead, it goes to the Mavs and they get the rights to draft Cooper Flagg, – 7:26 PM

The Bulls landing Cooper Flagg would be more important to the organization than hitting on Derrick Rose. Bigger, better shooter, higher IQ, and a wing. Big bank always takes little bank. Here we go … – 7:04 PM

Barring the unexpected, former Duke star Cooper Flagg is expected to the first White-American taken with the No. pick 1 pick in the NBA Draft since 1977. The last was former Indiana center Kent Benson taken first overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in 1977. bit.ly/4klvRrD – 6:05 PM

Cooper Flagg has been a big topic with @TheFrankIsola & @Scalabrine for years…Ryan McDonough asking the question everyone wants to know! pic.x.com/hs8pwp6Oc1 – 5:04 PM

More on this storyline
Marc Stein: Asked today if the Mavericks would entertain trading the No. 1 overall pick rather than selecting Cooper Flagg, one source briefed on rhe team’s thinking told @TheSteinLine and @DLLS_Sports : “No chance.” -via x.com / May 13, 2025
