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.

At Duke, Flagg averaged 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists and earned ACC Player of the Year honors while leading the Blue Devils to the Final Four. He also won the Wooden and Naismith Player of the Year awards and was an All-American.

Draymond Green criticized the Dallas Mavericks for shutting down Duke Blue Devils basketball great Cooper Flagg after two Summer League games.
