Former Duke basketball star Cooper Flagg's first NBA points did not come until the second half of the Dallas Mavericks ' season-opener against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night.
Making the start at point guard, it looked like the the 18-year-old Flagg was going to get on the board almost immediately. He grabbed a steal on the Spurs' opening possession and pushed his way up the court before finding Anthony Davis who lobbed it up for Flagg. The rookie couldn’t quite finish the alley-oop, narrowly missing what would’ve been a highlight-reel first basket.
