Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Stellar all-around performance in win
Flagg finished Monday's 113-109 win over the Heat with 29 points (12-23 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 11 assists, six rebounds, five steals and two blocks across 40 minutes.
Flagg returned from a one-game absence due to a left shoulder sprain and stuffed the stat sheet. The star forward tied for the game-high scoring total in an efficient performance from inside the arc and dished out a career-high-tying 11 assists. He also logged a career-best five steals and has supplied at least three swipes in all three of his regular-season appearances thus far.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Good to go Monday
Flagg (shoulder) is active for Monday's game against the Heat.
Despite being diagnosed with a mild left shoulder sprain that forced him to miss Saturday's loss to the Spurs and being considered a true game-time call by coach Dusty May, Flagg will play versus Miami. It doesn't sound like he'll have any restrictions following the one-game absence, and his return will likely send Zaccharie Risacher back to the bench.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Game-time call Monday
Head coach Dusty May said Flagg is a game-time decision for Monday's matchup against the Heat, though May expects the second-year forward to play, Eddie Sefko of the Mavericks' official site reports.
Flagg suffered a left shoulder sprain in Friday's win over Indiana, though he's trending in the right direction after being held out of Saturday's loss to the Spurs. If the star forward is cleared to return to action, there would be fewer minutes available for guys like Sergio de Larrea, Jett Howard and Zaccharie Risacher.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Goes through shootaround
Flagg (shoulder) was spotted going through Monday's morning shootaround, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Given the circumstances of the injury, it's quite remarkable to see Flagg doing so well. He was diagnosed with a sprain Saturday, but the injury seems to be progressing and it's being described as a mild issue. He remains listed as questionable on the injury report.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Questionable to play Monday
Flagg (shoulder) is questionable to play Monday against the Heat.
The Mavericks diagnosed Flagg with a mild left shoulder sprain Saturday, and the questionable tag suggests a final call on his availability will be made closer to Monday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff. With Naji Marshall (illness) already ruled out, Marcus Sasser and Zaccharie Risacher would be the top candidates to start if Flagg is ruled out for Monday's road game.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Diagnosed with left shoulder sprain
The Mavericks diagnosed Flagg with a mild left shoulder sprain, and the second-year forward will be re-evaluated by medical staff next week, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Flagg took a hard fall during the second quarter of the Mavericks' win against the Pacers on Friday. He was already ruled out for Saturday's game against the Spurs, but it looks like the 2025 first-overall pick will miss at least a couple of more games while recovering from his injury. Naji Marshall, Marcus Sasser and Zaccharie Risacher figure to be the top candidates to enter Dallas' starting five for as long as Flagg is sidelined.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Headed for further evaluation
Head coach Dusty May said Flagg (shoulder) will be evaluated in the next couple of days, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Flagg can presumably be ruled out for Saturday's game against San Antonio after leaving Friday's win over Indiana and not returning. The star forward was hit while in the air and took a hard fall, landing on his left shoulder. With Flagg sidelined, Naji Marshall, Zaccharie Risacher and Marcus Sasser are candidates for increased burn.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Won't return Friday
Flagg won't return to Friday's game against the Pacers due to left shoulder soreness, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Flagg took a hard fall after being fouled on a dunk attempt late in the second quarter and headed to the locker room with 45 seconds remaining in the first half. He did not come out for the second half, with Naji Marshall starting in his place. Flagg was ruled out shortly thereafter, and he will finish with 14 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and three turnovers across 17 minutes. For now, he should be considered questionable for Saturday's meeting with the Spurs.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Balls out despite loss
Flagg closed Wednesday's 128-110 loss to the Rockets with 32 points (10-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 11-13 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 33 minutes.
Flagg was as advertised, getting it done on both ends of the floor despite what ended up being a comprehensive loss. While there is cause for concern when it comes to what Dallas might be able to achieve this season, it's clear that Flagg is going to be leading from the front, no matter what. His ADP settled in the 6-10 range across most formats, meaning a lot of fantasy managers could have their season riding on his production.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Team option picked up
The Mavericks exercised the third-year team option on Flagg's contract for the 2027-28 season, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Flagg is coming off an impressive rookie campaign with Dallas, averaging 21.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.9 blocks across 33.5 minutes per game in 70 regular-season appearances. The second-year forward should operate as one of Dallas' top offensive options alongside Kyrie Irving in 2026-27.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Double-doubles with three stocks
Flagg notched 26 points (8-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists, two steals, one block and two turnovers over 30 minutes in Friday's 135-111 preseason loss to the Hawks.
Flagg closed out the preseason strong, recording his first double-double to go with a full stat line. Last season's Rookie of the Year has looked great through the exhibition games, averaging 19.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.3 triples, 1.7 steals, 1.0 blocks and 2.0 turnovers in just 24.7 minutes per game, so he appears primed to take another leap in Year 2.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Available Friday
Flagg (rest) is available for Friday's preseason game against the Hawks.
Flagg didn't play in Wednesday's meeting with the Pelicans but will be on the floor to close out the preseason. The 19-year-old appeared in two preseason games, averaging 16.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks over 22.1 minutes per contest.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Fills stat sheet in victory
Flagg recorded 14 points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, two steals and a block across 25 minutes in Sunday's 132-115 preseason win over the Rockets.
Flagg struggled with his shot but delivered an impressive playmaking performance, leading Dallas with seven assists and committing just two turnovers. Despite his shooting woes, Flagg still found a way to contribute offensively, getting to the free-throw line eight times. Even with Kyrie Irving in the backcourt, Flagg should be a key playmaking and scoring weapon for the Mavericks ahead of his second year in the league following an impressive rookie season in which he averaged 21.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 0.9 blocks and 1.2 steals across 33.5 minutes in 70 regular-season games.
