So after a slow 5 games start to the Summer League, Flip suddenly decided to put his Superman cape on and show us what he’s made of.

His breakout Summer League game came against the Raptors.

I am pleasantly surprised and may his growth continue.

Let’s share some of his highlights here.

Srs? Weren’t you hating on him in all the other threads?

Those plays at 0:35 and 1:36 though. Hot damn.

Yeah the 0.36 fadeaway was Dirk like.

He needs to get stronger for sure, but great potential going forward.

You don't see it in these highlights, but Flip's ability to guard on the perimeter is going to get him more minutes. He can press up on perimeter players and usually recover.

Is she at Summer League? You know, making sure he eats right and gets tucked into bed at a reasonable hour.

He looked so tense out there the first 5 games. It’s like a switch flipped for him. He looked like a lottery talent today.

Dirk needed to get stronger too.

Maybe she joined him after the 5th game to set him right.. lol..

Compare the 0.36 min move to Chet’s summer league Dirk move..

No reason Flip can’t aspire to at least follow the path..

Well he did a 180 from the first 5 games…

Not really....

He showed flashes every game and he played an entire two years in college where he also showed these parts of his game. Process vs Results.

Glad to see him break out! He has a lot of versatility. Significant better agility and athleticism than KO, not as crafty yet. Still have no idea how he dropped to us. I was mad they let him go at 28 but that’s why they pay the guys upstairs I suppose. Has a lot still to work on but a steal for the 2nd round; thought he was borderline lottery in 23 and 24. My dude finally letting it fly.

I don't know how you can watch those highlights and not be excited about his potential development.

The issue with highlights is they a great cherrypicking of what someone is capable of. That said, I think he'll be a serviceable player at least in the NBA.

Tbf in this instance Flip actually played a great game worthy of those highlights.
