The Mavs listed seven items in exchange for Cooper Flagg's one-of-one debut patch card, from 32 years of season tickets to a Celtics road trip.

DALLAS - The Dallas Mavericks are offering season tickets, memorabilia, and team access to whoever ends up with Cooper Flagg's one-of-one Rookie Debut Patch Autograph card.

Dallas announced the offer Thursday in a graphic built as a trade proposal. The card sits alone on the Mavericks' side of the sheet. Seven items sit on the other.

Listed first are two premium lower-level season tickets for 32 years. Flagg wears No. 32.

A signed game-worn Flagg rookie jersey is on the list. So is a postgame photo with Flagg, a private photoshoot with the NBA Rookie of the Year trophy and the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy, and a VIP tour of the Mavericks practice facility that comes with a team meet-and-greet. Up to 10 guests get a private basketball experience at American Airlines Center. A road trip to a Mavericks game against the Boston Celtics is on there too. Airfare, hotel, and game tickets are covered.

Fine print along the bottom of the graphic calls the offer a proposed trade. The team listed mavs.com/bounty for the full terms.

2026 Topps Chrome Update Basketball reached hobby and retail shelves Thursday. Flagg's card is in the product as a redemption, and nobody had pulled it as of the team's announcement.

Flagg signed it July 17 at Fanatics Fest NYC, in a room offstage before he appeared with ESPN's Kevin Negandhi at the Javits Center. Topps displayed the card in a glass case for the remainder of the event, which ran July 16 through July 19. Rookie Debut Patch Autograph cards for Kon Knueppel, Dylan Harper, Ace Bailey, and Derik Queen were produced for the same set.

The patch comes from the jersey Flagg wore in the first half of his NBA debut.

That jersey sold for $1 million at NBA Auctions in February, and the most anyone has paid for a Flagg card is $366,000 in a March auction, Dan Hajducky of ESPN reported. Last year a debut patch card of Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes sold for $1.11 million.

Geoff Wilson, founder of Sports Cards Investor, told ESPN he had once put Flagg's card in the $1.5 million range. "Now? Five million," Wilson said.

Negandhi asked Flagg at Fanatics Fest whether he would buy the card himself once it surfaces.

"Maybe eventually," Flagg said.

Flagg made his debut Oct. 22, 2025, against the San Antonio Spurs at American Airlines Center. He scored 10 points on 4-of-13 shooting, grabbed 10 rebounds, and played 32 minutes in a 125-92 loss. He was held scoreless in the first half. His first NBA points came on a 20-foot jump shot to open the third quarter.

Over 70 games, all starts, Flagg averaged 21.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.2 steals in 33.5 minutes while shooting 46.8% from the field. He and Michael Jordan are the only rookies since 1973 to lead their teams in points, rebounds, assists, and steals. Flagg took 56 of 100 first-place votes for Rookie of the Year over Knueppel, and he was named to the All-Rookie First Team.

The 51 points he scored against Orlando late in the season made him the first teenager to reach 50 in an NBA game. He had set the previous teenage record of 49 earlier in the year against Knueppel and Charlotte.
