Dallas Mavericks rookie Cooper Flagg is undeniably one of the most-hyped prospects in recent years. Even before he made his NBA debut, he had been compared to NBA legends such as Grant Hill, Scottie Pippen, Larry Bird and Kevin Garnett.
Flagg also got off to a historic start in his NBA career. Despite struggling as a point guard — which is not his natural position since he’s a forward — he continues to impress with solid numbers. In fact, during the Mavs’ second game of the season against the Washington Wizards, he recorded 18 points, five rebounds and six assists.
According to Polymarket Hoops, Flagg is the youngest player since LeBron James to have a 15-5-5 game. Both players achieved this feat at 18 years old, 22 years apart.
That being said, it’s no surprise that Flagg’s rookie cards are also among the most sought-after chases in the hobby today, especially as Topps takes over the NBA license starting this 2025-26 season. He has shown the elite potential that made him the No. 1 pick of the 2025 NBA Draft, and many are buying the hype.
Recently, one lucky collector hit the biggest card of Flagg released in the latest Topps Basketball flagship product.
In a video that Topps shared on social media, the company showed a breaker in China pulling the 2025 Topps Basketball Cooper Flagg Rookie Foilfractor 1/1.
She found the 1-of-1 Cooper Flagg rookie card.

To highlight how massive the pull was, Topps itself described the moment as “The find of a LIFETIME” on Instagram.
It remains to be seen how much the one-of-a-kind Flagg card will fetch if and when it hits the market. While it’s not the biggest Flagg card in the set, it should still command a high value considering the Mavs rookie’s popularity.
