Bro is on fire 🔥
I’m sure Dallas will trade him for someone injury prone

Every Mav fan fears them trading Coop for an aging injury plagued player. Nothing is unthinkable anymore

The duke fellas are balling cause king kon is also hooping yea last game against the 76ers coop didn’t have the best game but those two imo are the best players in the draft followed by ace then vj

Kon is the best player out of everyone, way more efficient while carring the ball way less

It’s going to make people wonder how in the heck Duke lost to Houston in the Final 4, especially if they keep hooping like this. Both rookie of the month in their respective conference.
Of course, it’s not so simple. They were both freshman up against upperclassmen who had deep tournament run experience. For example, LJ Cryer who only played maybe 3 minutes total in March Madness in ‘21, was a part of a very dominant Baylor run to win it all. You give Flagg 4-5 years in college, and I’m almost certain he wins at least once chip

I’ll say in my 40+ years of being a basketball fan I’ve never seen someone have the game “slow down” for them so quickly. I guess you could say Luka but he was already playing pro before the NBA so not sure that counts. This kid is special.

The two-man game between AD and Cooper is beautiful. Reminds me rookie Duncan’s season with David Robinson. Imagine the chemistry if Coop and AD were to play for years with each other

Kon and cooper co-rookie of the year
@craigburnett6099
January 2, 2026 at 5:41 pm
Sorry. Your man Kon is awesome and having great season but Flagg is the ROY at least for first half.
@zhonorebrown
January 2, 2026 at 6:02 pm
@craigburnett6099I’m a Mavs fan cooper my guy. But I wouldn’t be suprised if both win. I still think cooper is the best rookie in the draft and he’s the he younger in the nba. I do believe he’s generational which people had doubts
@B3GINNER
January 2, 2026 at 6:11 pm
@craigburnett6099Kon did just break Steph Curry rookie record for most 20+ pt games with 50/40/90 percentages. He’s the fastest rookie to 100 made 3s. Is currently 2nd in the nba in made 3s. And is on pace to shatter the rookie 3 point record. Cooper is getting more attention, but technically speaking, Kon has better numbers and a more historic start
@craigburnett6099

Man does this guy help ease the pain of losing Luka.
@CufflinksAndChuckles
January 2, 2026 at 6:15 pm
He’s so efficient in the clutch and only has like 3 or 4 moves as a slasher. Imagine what his game would look like if he developed a wider offensive package. Imagine not even talking about his 3 point shooting. I’m talking about his passing, developing a floater, and even learning post moves. Hell, as an 18 year old, his body hasn’t finished developing yet. And he defends 1-5.

Coop already living up to the hype

I don’t think it’s smart to jump with him unless it’s a 7’0 center who strong lol. Or Steven Adams 😅😂😂
