Even before Flagg appeared on a professional basketball card he had become highly coveted among collectors, notching a high sale of $85,400 in April.
According to Market Movers, there have been more than $525,000 in total sales volume for Flagg cards in the past year.

Nico Harrison offers strong response to Knicks' Jason Kidd pursuit
Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison is putting the kibosh on the Jason Kidd-Knicks rumblings once again. 'Are there rumors out there about J-Kidd?' Harrison told reporters Wednesday after the Mavericks took Cooper Flagg with the first pick of the 2025 NBA Draft. 'I thought I shut those down. Yes, he will be the head coach next year.' Despite his current position as head coach of the Mavs, Kidd's name has been in Knicks coaching rumors ever since New York fired Tom Thibodeau in early June. On June 9, The Post reported that there was mutual interest between Kidd and the Knicks for the opening. 3 Mavericks coach Jason Kidd during a March 31 game. IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect The Knicks requested permission from Dallas to speak with the Hall of Fame point guard on June 11. The Mavericks declined. The speculation has persisted, nonetheless. NBA insider Scoop B. Robinson reported Tuesday that Kidd views the Knicks' opening as a 'dream job.' On June 5, two days after the Knicks dismissed Thibodeau, reported that there had been major franchise decisions in Dallas that Kidd was 'not on board with.' That included the firing of athletic trainer Casey Smith, who is now with the Knicks. Kidd would bring a winning pedigree and a wealth of basketball savvy to New York. 3 Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison said Jason Kidd 'will be the head coach' in Dallas next year. AP He took the Mavericks to the NBA Finals last season and was a 10-time All-Star in his 19-year playing career. The San Francisco native spent the last season of his playing career with the Knicks in 2012-13, teaming up with Carmelo Anthony, Amar'e Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler. In the past week, the focus of the Knicks' coaching search has reportedly shifted to former Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins, former Kings coach Mike Brown and Pelicans assistant James Borrego. 3 The Knicks remain in search for a new head coach after firing Tom Thibodeau.

All four requests were denied. Kidd has two years remaining on his contract in Dallas. In Dallas, Kidd now has a new young star to mentor in Flagg after Harrison shockingly traded away Luka Doncic to the Lakers last season.

Rocket Classic: Collin Morikawa Rips Reporter amid Stunning Caddie News
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Collin Morikawa's relationship with the media has always been a little complicated. Earlier this year, the 2-time major winner had stirred conversation by skipping media duties at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He tried justifying his decision, saying, "I don't owe anyone anything. No offense to you guys, but for me in the moment, I didn't want to be around anyone. Like, I didn't want to talk to anyone. I didn't need any sorries. You're just pissed." But it backfired heavily, forcing him to acknowledge the importance of media in growing the game later. Fast-forwarding to the Rocket Classic week, Morikawa found himself in another tense exchange. CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA - MAY 15: Collin Morikawa of the United States reacts following a Bogey on the fifth hole during the first round of the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Country Club on May... CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA - MAY 15: Collin Morikawa of the United States reacts following a Bogey on the fifth hole during the first round of the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Country Club on May 15, 2025 in Charlotte, North Carolina. (Photo by Jared C. Tilton/Getty Images) More Getty Images The 2-time major champion publicly called out Golfweek's reporter Adam Schupak during his pre-tournament conference at the Rocket Classic. The tension stemmed from a quote Schupak included in a recent article about Morikawa's caddie change, one that the golfer felt misrepresented his intentions and painted him in a negative light. "I read your article that you wrote," Morikawa said. "Look, I'm not here to tell people how to do their jobs, but I don't get why you would make me sound bad because you put out my quote that I was playing with pro-am partners out front." The quote in question, "Ask me anything you want in my press conference later, I'm with my pro-am partners now", was included in Schupak's original story, which has since been updated. Morikawa felt it lacked context and made him appear dismissive of media obligations. "Those guys are paying a lot of money, they're very important to the community, they're very important to the Rocket Classic," he added. "And for you to put out a quote like that to put me down and saying, 'Hey, wait two and a half hours,' I mean, you called me up on the first tee, you know." Schupak responded, "I thought I was actually giving you credit that you were playing, you were focused on your pro-am partners." Morikawa replied, "Okay, we can all read it very differently. That's not how I read it... I think there's a perspective where people can read it like that. So, I'm just going to leave it at that." The article was later updated to reflect Morikawa's full comments, but the moment underscored a broader issue in sports media, screaming how easily context can shift perception. Morikawa isn't the first to push back Rory McIlroy has previously expressed his frustration saying, "It's more a frustration with you guys," when asked about his recent step back from media duties. Jim Nantz publicly debunked false retirement rumors earlier this year, calling them "false news". Chatted with Jim Nantz ahead of his 40th Masters. We talked pressure of the job and his Augusta memories. Nantz also said he was "blindsided" by talk of his possible retirement in 2036 becoming news. — Paul Hodowanic (@PaulHodowanic) April 7, 2025 As for Morikawa's on-course situation, he's navigating a season of change. After parting ways with longtime caddie J.J. Jakovac in April, he teamed up with Joe Greiner (Max Homa's ex-caddie) but split again after five events. "Just because two people are great at what they do doesn't mean we're going to be great together," he explained. "I think Joe is an amazing caddie, but I think just the way we kind of saw things or just day to day how we kind of went about it, we were just a little bit on a different page. That doesn't mean it's right or wrong, but for me it just didn't feel right." For this week's Rocket Classic, he's enlisted former Cal teammate KK Limbhasut as a temporary fill-in. But his caddie for The Open remains undecided. "It's a process for me to find because I only know one way," Morikawa said. And clearly, that process extends beyond the ropes. As Morikawa's search for his next caddie continues, his act of calling out a reporter screams that he's not afraid to speak up when he feels it's been mishandled.

Boston Celtics jersey history No. 22 - Al Butler (1961)
The Boston Celtics have had players suiting up in a total of 68 different jersey numbers (and have three others not part of any numerical series) since their founding at the dawn of the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- the league that would become today's NBA), worn by well over 500 players in the course of Celtics history. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Celtics Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. Advertisement With 25 of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Celtics to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover. Oct 18, 2022; Boston, Massachusetts, USA; The number 6 is seen on the Boston Celtics jersey honoring Celtic great Bill Russell during the third quarter of the game between the Boston Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden. Mandatory Credit: Winslow Townson-USA TODAY Sports And for today's article, we will continue with the fourth of four people to wear the No. 22, Boston guard alum Al Butler. After ending his college career at Niagara, Butler was picked up with the 22nd overall selection of the 1961 NBA draft by the Celtics. The Birmingham, Alabama native would play just five games with Boston before he was dealt to the New York Knicks. During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Butler wore only jersey No. 22 and put up 6.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game. All stats and data courtesy of Basketball Reference.
