Cooper Flagg Probable for Friday Despite Wrist Sprain

Flagg is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Spurs due to a left wrist sprain. Beyond his injury status, Flagg recently discussed the Mavericks' early-season struggles, noting that while his family was initially concerned, he is finding growth by learning from veteran leaders like Klay Thompson. Thompson's professional approach to preparation and handling losses has provided a vital blueprint for the young forward as he navigates his first season.
