Cooper Flagg Presented with One-of-a-Kind Dave & Buster’s Card — Unlimited Game Time for Life!
In a jaw-dropping and unexpected twist off the hardwood, basketball phenom Cooper Flagg has been presented with a one-of-a-kind Dave & Buster’s (D&B) Power Card — granting him unlimited game time for life. Yes, you read that right. The 6-foot-9 future NBA superstar now holds the keys to every Skee-Ball lane, racing simulator, and arcade shooter across the country, all thanks to a surprise gesture by the entertainment giant.
The moment took place during a promotional event hosted by Dave & Buster’s in Los Angeles, where Flagg was appearing for a youth-focused basketball initiative. Unbeknownst to the rising star, D&B had a unique gift in store: a sleek, metallic black Power Card engraved with his name, and glowing text reading: “LIFETIME ACCESS — UNLIMITED GAMES.”
“We’ve never done this before,” said Dave & Buster’s Chief Marketing Officer, Kelsey Martinez. “Cooper Flagg represents the future — not just of basketball, but of hard work, humility, and fun. We wanted to honor that with something truly unforgettable.”
The gesture comes as Flagg continues to generate national buzz, not only for his dominance in the Summer League and explosive potential as a top NBA rookie, but for his charismatic presence and appeal to younger fans. Known for his competitive spirit on the court and playful energy off of it, Flagg has become a favorite among youth audiences — and it turns out, he’s a huge fan of arcade games.
“I grew up hitting the arcade with my brothers after practice,” Flagg said while holding the exclusive card. “Dave & Buster’s was always the spot. This is insane. I don’t even know what to say — I might have to build my own arcade room now just to keep up!”
Social media exploded following the reveal, with fans and celebrities chiming in. NBA All-Star Jayson Tatum posted on X, “Yo @CooperFlagg slide me that D&B card bro 😂,” while ESPN’s SportsCenter ran a highlight reel titled: “Flagg Gets the Golden Ticket.”
This isn’t just a PR stunt — according to D&B reps, the card is linked to a lifetime system ID that ensures Flagg can swipe into any of the chain’s 150+ U.S. locations for free game credits forever. It’s not transferrable, not replaceable, and certainly not something available to the public.
Beyond the novelty, the partnership hints at bigger branding opportunities for Flagg. Sources close to his team suggest that this collaboration could be the first step toward larger endorsement deals with entertainment and tech brands. While most rookies focus on sneaker lines, Flagg may be setting a new standard for marketability in the gaming and youth lifestyle space.
As for what he’ll play first?
“Gotta go with Pop-A-Shot,” Flagg laughed. “Just because I know I can never miss now.”
With talent, charm, and now unlimited game time, Cooper Flagg might just be the most unstoppable rookie in more ways than one.
