This article was originally published on www.si.com/nba/mavericks as Cooper Flagg 'passed the eye test' with Mavericks' Summer League stint. The Dallas Mavericks are in the dead part of the offseason, but they are still enamored by Cooper Flagg, who they selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.

The Dallas Mavericks got their first glimpse at what Cooper Flagg brings to the table at the NBA Summer League.

Flagg scored 31 points in his second start and looked more comfortable as the Mavericks' primary ball-handler. Dallas shut him down for the rest of the summer slate after his scoring outburst was the most by a No. 1 pick in summer league play since John Wall in 2010.
