This LeBron James Reference in Cooper Flagg Talk May Prompt Another Apology From Celtics Legend

Kendrick Perkins has a thing for drawing family trees when talking basketball legacies—and it’s starting to feel like a pattern. Not long ago, he questioned Anthony Edwards’ ability to be the face of the league, not based on his game, but because he wasn’t married. “Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Shaq, LeBron, Steph… they all were family men,” Perkins said. Edwards, who has a 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 with his girlfriend, was unfairly dragged into a lifestyle comparison, and Perkins later backtracked. “I apologized privately, so I’m apologizing publicly… My bad, young fella.” The real question? Is Perk repeating history or finally learning from it?

Kendrick Perkins knows how to get people talking—and when it came to breaking down Cooper Flagg ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft, he didn’t hold back. With his signature mix of passion and bold comparisons, the Celtics big man-turned-analyst said, “I mean, but look, this is how I look at Cooper Flagg. If LeBron James and Kevin Garnett had a 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦, you get Cooper Flagg.” And then he doubled down on it. “When you think about LeBron James, you think of a complete basketball player… that’s a LeBron James type thing. And you talked about his passion, his tenacity. I’m watching KG all over again.”
