Next Stop – Vegas: The NBA 2K26 Summer League tips off Thursday in Las Vegas, where this year’s No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg is slated to make his debut as the Mavs face the Lakers (8 ET, ESPN) – highlighting a seven-game opening day slate.

Sensabaugh finished with 37 points, including 13-of-14 from the foul line. The one he missed? That just so happened when the crowd serenaded him with MVP chants.
