After two exciting games, Cooper Flagg's time in the NBA Summer League has come to an end. The Dallas Mavericks rookie has been reportedly shut down by the team for the rest of the summer, per NBA insider Marc Stein.

Flagg, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, has only played in two Summer League games: a win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday, and Saturday's loss to the San Antonio Spurs.

In an episode of DLLS Sports on Saturday night, Stein said that the Spurs game was Flagg's last for the Summer League, and that he was not scheduled to play in Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.

Flagg put up a massive performance in his second game with Dallas on Saturday, scoring 31 points off a hot second quarter. Despite Flagg's shooting, the Mavericks fell short of No. 2 overall pick Dylan Harper and the Spurs in a seven-point loss.
