Flag appeared on the cover of "SLAM"! Seven-Crown: He is expected to break James total score record in the future

On August 27, the NBA entered the offseason. Recently, Mavericks rookie Cooper Flag appeared on the cover of the famous basketball magazine "SLAM". The famous seven-time champion Horry said in commenting on Flag that Flag may surpass James' total score record in the future.

Earlier today, the well-known basketball magazine SLAM released the cover of the latest issue, with the cover character being the Mavericks rookie Cooper Flag. At this year's draft, Flag was elected as the No. 1 pick without any suspense. He will become teammates with Davis, Irving, Thompson and others in the new season.

When talking about Flag, the famous seven-time champion Horry said: "Is there any 20-year-old player in the league now? Because James entered the league at the age of 19, he averaged 25 points at the age of 20, and then he played from 20 to 40. The next person who is likely to catch up with James is Flag. He entered the league at the age of 19. Can he average 25 points at the age of 20? To catch up with James, that young man must be a phenomenal player who will kill all sides as soon as he enters the league."

In addition, ESPN predicted the best rookie awards for the new season, and a group of NBA experts (including journalists, editors and analysts) voted for the top three of the six major NBA awards. The first place scored 5 points, the second place scored 3 points, and the third place scored 1 point, among which Flag scored 121 points, which was almost favored by the break, and the second place scored only 38 points.

In this summer League, Flag played twice. In the summer League's debut against the Lakers, Flag made only 5 of 21 shots and scored 10 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 block; when facing the Spurs in the second game, Flag made 10 of 21 shots, scored 31 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block. It should be noted that 31 points set the highest score in the summer league after 2017.
