On July 14, a decision by the Dallas Mavericks made waves in the basketball world: let No. 1 pick Cooper Flag end the summer league journey early, when he only played two games.
Frager's summer couplet journey is ups and downs. In his debut against the Lakers, the No. 1 pick was in a sluggish state, hitting only 5 goals in 21 shots and only gaining 10 points, and his performance was not satisfactory. However, after just one game, Flag performed a "counterattack" against the Spurs in the second game. He made 10 of 21 shots, scoring the game's highest 31 points, and even played a wonderful match with second-place Dylan Harper, attracting the attention of the audience. After the game, Flag revealed that the team hoped he would play more aggressively. In this game, he performed well in fouls, but there were a slight flaw in the free throw segment. Even he laughed and said that his mother might be talking about it. Why did the Mavericks make this unexpected decision? Although the official has not given a clear statement, it is not difficult to guess the reason. Perhaps it was Flag's performance in these two games that allowed the team to fully understand its potential and strength, and believed that there was no need to continue to investigate through Xia Lian. After all, although the intensity of the summer league is not as strong as the regular season, the risk of players being injured still exists. As the No. 1 pick that the team has high expectations, the Mavericks naturally do not want Flag to risk his injury. It is undoubtedly a safer choice to recall him in advance for targeted training and fully prepare for the new season.
Now, Flag will shift his focus to regular season preparation. For this talented No. 1 pick, the new season is full of possibilities. Can he continue his hot touch in the second game against the Spurs? On the more competitive regular season stage, how will he deal with it when facing stronger opponents? Should we grow rapidly into the core of the team, or should we need time to adapt to the rhythm? These suspense will be gradually revealed in the new season. The wonderful showdown between
Flag and second-tier Harper in Summer United have made fans look forward to their future performance in the regular season. Let's wait and see what kind of answer this No. 1 pick will give in the new season, whether it will soar or go through hardships. # The No. 1 pick vs. the No. 2 pick! Flag scored 31 points#
