Colin Cowherd SHOCKS NBA Fans: “Cooper Flagg Is BETTER Than Luka Dončić!
Dallas Mavericks fans are in disbelief as rookie Cooper Flagg just delivered one of the most jaw-dropping preseason debuts in years — and now even Colin Cowherd is saying it: “Flagg is already better than Luka Dončić.” 😱🔥
In this video, we break down every moment from Flagg’s stunning performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder — from his pinpoint passing to his fearless leadership — and why analysts are calling him the next generational superstar. At just 18 years old, Flagg dominated on both ends of the floor, showing elite court vision, basketball IQ, and a confidence that had Mavericks Nation buzzing.
With Luka Dončić now gone and Dallas turning the page, could Cooper Flagg actually be the new face of the Mavericks — and maybe even the entire NBA? We’ll analyze his impact, compare his style to Luka’s, and explain why Jason Kidd’s offense might have just found its new engine.

Colin is clown.
Whi think that Cooper Flag is better than Luka is clown.
What the hell is this guy talking about
Cooper is better for a team than Luka. Luka can score more. That is the extent of what Luka does better than Cooper, right now. Luka is the softest player I've seen. He'll never win anything.
Agreed.. Flagg is someone built different
Melo. Melo. Dwl.
Lets talk at the and of the seasson who is where and why not…
He never be close to Luka no matter what ! Time will tell but don’t be surprised when he all hype and nothing!
This was a wild take. Luka is cooked at 26… wtf is he smoking? I want some. 😂
Adou Thiero vs Cooper
Colin must drink more Milk.
Let wait at least half season.
Yes, Nico said so…so it's true!
Luka doesn't brake his body on stunts, he moves nice and easy! Dunks are stupid way to get injured unnecessarily! Luka, Joker move the ball faster than any player can run 😅
Luka is a winner since 16 ,European gold,MVP with Real, finalist with Mavericks and this kid,however good didn't win even participation medal 😅
Colin – " Lukas been grinding with older men for 7 years" pause pause pause pause. Yo, WTF is going on?…. pause.
I'm gonna call Cooper Flagg Number 1 double digit, cuz he only score 11 pts a game no matter how many minutes he plays! Lol 😂😂😂
Somehow even "analysts"need to earn some money, by labelling.
What drugs are you on??
Although some are clowning colin for saying this i get what hes saying. Luka looked like an old 25 last yr. He has lost a ton of weight though. I wanna see how different he looks. For flagg , hes already 10x the defender. Idk if hell ever be the pure scorer luka is. Im not sure youll ever see flagg drop a 70 ball or even many 50 balls in his career. But in terms of his actual offensive archtype i could see it being very much like lebron. An offensive point forward that can get you 25-30 consistently at his peak while being a playmaker , rebounder and than turn around and be a demon helpside rim protector and getting a lot of passing lanes steals with his length ( yes in his prime cavs and heat years, lebron was a very very good defender )
Cooper might be ROY , but it won't be a runaway. Bailey will have more opportunities in Utah, Dallas has more options
and you are too old since Luka came to NBA. just go home, retire from stupid comments ….
Coop has a chance to make an all defensive team as a rookie
This is how good his defense is
He will be a all time defensive wing
He’s just different
Luka didn’t have a super team
Thats what u said about ben simmons
That’s stupid. He just played three preseason games.
Luka is better nuff said
You messed up a few dozen facts here about Luka
Lets see in a couple of years,
Luka led his absolutely sorry ass lineup team to the playoffs in his second year. If coopstein can't get into playoffs with this stacked team, then he's pure trash and not worth talking about.
Classic misinterpretation. He's saying he'd rather have Flagg for the rest of his career than Luka. Quoting Cowherd as saying, "Flagg is already better than Luka Doncic," is a crazy context cut. He said Flagg is a better defender already, and he is. He did not say Flagg is a better overall player. What he did say is that he'd take Flagg now for his career over the years Luka has left, and I 100% agree.
Preview tonight 10:30, #iykyk , lets see
Colin is better than Stephen A who is than Cooper F who is better than Luka D…
Luka cook Flagg and Melo together …
I'm sorry I'm a Mavericks fan even I know that Cooper flag is not better than Luka hell no
Colin is just a Luka hater
Wow. What a crazy take. Luka is just a step back guy? Did he hit his damn head? He’s working with one brain cell right now.
Some Americans just can't stand the fact that foreigners have become the main stars of basketball. We know, it hurts…especially the patriots on the tongue. Luca is one of teh Best in the world…take an aspirin.
