Dallas Mavericks rookie Cooper Flagg has no doubt been one of the bright spots on a team that has been clouded by darkness and losses. While the firing of Nico Harrison rightfully earned the national media's attention, Flagg has quietly been working on his game and getting better as each day passes.
Now, almost a month into his rookie season, Flagg's finishing and offensive outputs have reached all-time highs, and he may finally be getting the respect he deserves. It may have taken a month and a handful of games, but Flagg's finishing and ability to take over games in big moments have truly put him on a radar that could make him a superstar, assuming the team doesn't waste any time making him their focal point.
