Cooper Flagg's rookie year role gets even clearer after latest Nico Harrison decision

Nico Harrison is on a quest to make the Dallas Mavericks a team full of forwards, and he's doing a pretty good job of it. After signing PJ Washington to a 4-year, $90 million extension on Wednesday afternoon, the Mavs have once again made their intentions for this year, and future years, clear: they want to be bigger, stronger, and more versatile than their opponents. They also made their intentions for rookie Cooper Flagg even clearer; he's going to act as a 6-foot-9 point guard.

An excess of forwards isn't exactly a problem because all of them are productive players.
