Mavs Coach Kidd Praises Cooper Flagg's PG Play, Undecided on Rookie's Starting Role

Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd lauded rookie Cooper Flagg's strong showing as the starting point guard during the team's final two preseason contests. The 18-year-old's performance drew praise from Kidd, who acknowledged his contributions in the role. However, despite Flagg's positive impact, Coach Kidd remained noncommittal regarding the decision to name the young guard as the permanent starting point guard for the upcoming regular season opener. The coach's remarks indicate that while Flagg impressed, his long-term role at point guard is still under evaluation.
