A year on from Cooper Flagg being the unquestioned No. 1 pick in the NBA draft, his rookie season is complete. After a somewhat uneven start, the 19-year-old finished extremely strong and reinforced his status as a franchise cornerstone for the Mavericks.
Flagg played in 70 games this year, starting them all. The 6'9" wing finished as the leader among rookies in points per game (21.0), while averaging 6.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.2 steals in 33.5 minutes per game. He became the first rookie since Michael Jordan to lead his team in points, rebounds, assists and steals. Not bad company.
