The top pick is not good enough! In the game against the Trail Blazers, Flagg scored 21 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. He is the youngest player in history to score 20 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 0 turnovers in a single game. Although Flagg's performance so far this season has been mixed, he averaged 15.6 points, 6.7 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game, with a true shooting percentage of only 52.5%. Considering that the team does not have a serious defender, he needs to change his style of play, become an organizational forward, and reach double figures in 10 consecutive games. This is not easy for an 18-year-old rookie.

His offense is still very comprehensive. He can break through and make three-pointers. The most important thing is that he has excellent physical coordination for his height.

Get the ball from the three-point line. Break through Grant in one step.

In disguise, he breaks through from the left and stops mid-range.

As a power forward, pick-and-roll and outside bombs. Three-point hit

This is what happened in one round. After the steal, one-stop dribbling completed a layup 2+1. These dribbling speeds are unimaginable. They are actions that this height can do.

After showing off the dribbling and vision, the three-point line began to break through. The left hand passed to the open space in the bottom corner

and he dribbled behind his back and stopped suddenly, turned around and threw

when he met a defender whose speed could match him. Then he can use his height to complete the finish

Although he is only 18 years old, he encountered huge external pressure and criticism at the beginning of this season. Flagg did not panic, and slowly adapted to his steady growth. Now he can show his advantages and scoring methods on the court, which makes the entire Mavericks team happy.

After Doncic was traded, the Mavericks were in chaos and urgently needed a cornerstone player to comfort them

Is Flagg the right candidate?
