Flagg, the player coming to Dallas to save the Mavericks from last year’s disaster, is not a finished product.

He shot 10/21 from the field, 3/9 from three-point range, and 8/13 from the free-throw line.The performance was everything the Mavericks wanted to see as they shut Flagg down for the remainder of the exhibition games.

Cooper Flagg only played in two NBA 2K Summer League games before the Dallas Mavericks pulled their top draft pick from the Las Vegas event. They had seen enough after the Mavericks forward scored 31 points Sunday during a 76-69 loss against the San Antonio Spurs,
