“I mean just learning. I think learning how to carry yourself go about certain things but at the end of the day like everyone is their own person. So like Bronny, he ain’t the most out loud spoken guy like Shedeur, very quiet,” Harper said about the stars that came before him. “But he still gets the same backlash gets. So at the end of the day you’re still going to get the backlash no matter what you do, whether it’s right wrong or anything else. So just having that mindset that like we’re the next generation of these superstar kids and there’s always going to be a spotlight on us no matter what and just going with that mindset just like being you honestly that’s how I look just being me.” -via Clutch Points / June 27, 2025
The Dallas Mavericks held an introductory press conference for 2025 NBA Draft No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg on Friday. After the press conference, Mark Cuban — who was in attendance — took some time to speak to reporters. Cuban was asked about Dirk Nowitzki and Flagg, to which he provided a “trash talk” comparison. “Dirk would talk his game and tell you what he was going to do,” Cuban told reporters. “And you see that with Cooper, too. Cooper likes to talk trash. The difference was… Dirk would say it in German and no one understood it. So now someone needs to ask him (Flagg) if he knows any foreign languages.” -via Clutch Points / June 27, 2025
“I’m coming in just trying to learn and trying to get better every single day,” Flagg told reporters during the press conference. “I think I can do that to the best of my ability… Expectations and pressure, other people will put on me and our team will kind of work itself out. I’m just trying to come in and be the best that I can be.” -via Clutch Points / June 27, 2025
