DALLAS — Cooper Flagg added another major honor to his breakout season Wednesday after being unanimously selected to the 2025-26 Kia NBA All-Rookie First Team.
Flagg received first-team votes on all 100 ballots from a global media panel, becoming the second-youngest player in NBA history to earn the honor behind LeBron James.
The reigning Rookie of the Year averaged 21.0 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 70 starts for Dallas while leading the team in points, rebounds, assists and steals. Flagg joins Michael Jordan as the only rookies in NBA history to lead their team in all four categories.
He also became the first Mavericks player to earn All-Rookie honors before turning 20 and joins Jason Kidd and Luka Dončić among Dallas players to earn unanimous All-Rookie First Team recognition.
