Ace Bailey crushes Lakers rumors, takes Utah Jazz decision amid wild NBA Draft speculation
With the season winding down to speculations of draft-day manipulation and trade rumours, Utah Jazz forward Ace Bailey has finally quashed all the rumour mills. Ace Bailey poses on the red carpet prior to the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft at Barclays Center on June 25, 2025 in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. (Photo by Sarah Stier / GETTY IMAGES NORTH AMERICA / Getty Images via AFP)(Getty Images via AFP) The 18-year-old rising star, selected No. 5 overall in Wednesday's NBA Draft out of Rutgers, will report to the Jazz on Saturday, a team representative confirmed to ESPN's Jonathan Givony. 'We've had good communication with Ace Bailey and his representatives,' the representative said. 'We feel good about everything. Ace and his family are coming to Utah tomorrow. We'll have a press conference Sunday, and a practice Monday.'

While Bailey didn't work out for any team prior to the draft, all signs now point to him being fully committed to starting his pro career in Salt Lake City. 'He's great,' Jazz president of basketball operations Austin Ainge said after the draft. 'We were able to speak with him. He was super excited. We're super excited. We're expecting a very bright future.' Bailey's Utah bet shakes up Lakers' offseason blueprint Bailey will now begin preparing for the NBA Summer League, set to tip off on 10 July. After a standout season with the Scarlet Knights, where he averaged 17.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game, earning All-Big Ten honours, the forward arrives in Utah as one of the league's most talked about rookies. Yet, one such ripple effect might be on Los Angeles because of Bailey's sudden commitment to Utah. With the Los Angeles Lakers entering the offseason disappointed by losing in the first round of the playoffs, the front office is likely to pursue reinforcements to maximise Lebron James' last title run. Many speculated that if Bailey expressed disinterest in Utah, the Jazz might pivot toward making Lauri Markkanen available in a trade. Instead, Utah's stacked frontcourt now featuring Bailey, Markkanen, John Collins (who picked up his $26.2 million player option), and Walker Kessler presents a good problem for Danny Ainge to solve.

They also retained Austin Reaves, Dalton Knecht, and a coveted unprotected 2031 first-round pick.

'Cooper Flagg is a white guy' — Peter Rosenberg's ESPN remark sparks debate over race and rising NBA stars
Cooper Flagg made headlines the moment he was selected first overall by the Dallas Mavericks in the 2025 NBA Draft. Standing at 6'8" and coming off a dominant season at Duke, his talent is undeniable. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But it wasn't just his skills that caught attention. An ESPN commentator's remark 'Cooper Flagg is a white guy' quickly turned the spotlight toward something bigger than basketball: a renewed discussion around race in sports. Cooper Flagg becomes the first American born white No 1 NBA pick since Kent Benson in 1977 Cooper Flagg was picked first overall by the Dallas Mavericks in the 2025 NBA Draft. This made him the first American-born white player to be drafted No. 1 since Kent Benson back in 1977. During his 37 games at Duke, Flagg put up impressive stats with an average of 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.4 steals and blocks per game, shooting 48% overall and 38.5% from beyond the arc. He also racked up several prestigious awards, including the Wooden Award, Naismith, Oscar Robertson, and ACC Player of the Year. On ESPN's First Take June 27, syndicated host Peter Rosenberg declared — 'Cooper Flagg is a white guy, maybe the best white American prospect since Larry Bird. Let's not act as if we don't live in America and we're not seeing what's happening with Caitlin Clark in the WNBA... if he's nearly as good as people expect... no one's going to be more intriguing or get more eyeballs than what Cooper Flagg's doing in Dallas..'. He tied this observation to Caitlin Clark's swift rise, suggesting that race is a major factor in media intrigue. According to Rosenberg, if Flagg meets the expectations, the racial narrative could elevate him to a "cultural phenomenon" and pull in a huge audience. Still, some critics have taken issue with this viewpoint, calling it simplistic—or perhaps even racially charged. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Many contend that Flagg's acclaim is due to his exceptional play on the court, not just his ethnicity. One comment on The Shadow League put it very straightforwardly — 'Caitlin Clark is popular because she's a historically great player, not because she's white, and the same is true for Cooper Flagg'. Also Read: This conversation mirrors the situation with Clark. Last year, Rosenberg sparked debate by dubbing her the "face of white fragility," accusing the media of having a bias in racial storytelling. Additionally, Flagg's entry comes as the Mavericks part ways with Luka Doncic and seek to redefine their identity nationally—and racially—as a new American star emerges.
