Cooper Flagg Poised for Breakout Weekend Amidst Strong Matchups

Cooper Flagg is highlighted as a must-start player this weekend, coming off his best performance of the season. He has favorable matchups against the Grizzlies and Wizards, both ranking in the bottom three for points allowed per game. With Anthony Davis (calf) still injured, Flagg is expected to be the focal point of the Dallas Mavericks' offense, providing an opportunity to build on his recent game against the Pelicans. Early season questions about Flagg's performance were also noted in a recent NBA rookie roundtable discussion, but his current outlook is positive.
