On a night when starting point guard Ryan Nembhard (two rebounds and five assists in 21 minutes) struggled, Flagg’s improved playmaking abilities came in handy. The rookie’s eight assists were the second-most in a game for him this season, trailing only an 11-assist effort against the Lakers on November 28. Over the last two weeks, Flagg has provided fourth-round per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats, which aligns with his Yahoo! ADP (42).

Flagg finished Saturday’s victory with a complete stat line, and his fantasy value continues to improve after a slow start to his rookie campaign. Over the past two weeks, the forward has provided fourth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats. In addition to him getting more comfortable, Flagg has seemingly benefited from some solidity at the point guard position, with fellow rookie Ryan Nembhard (11/1/7/1 with one three-pointer) making the job his own recently.

A one-sided loss limited the 2025 first-overall pick to under 30 minutes of game action on Friday for the first time since mid-November. He shot poorly from beyond the arc and fell short of the 20-point mark, ending his streak of such games at three. Still, Flagg shot fairly well overall on relatively low volume and was one of Dallas’ best scorers on the evening. His impact elsewhere was minimal.

Flagg extended his streak of games with at least 20 points to three with another solid performance on Wednesday. Over the past two weeks, the rookie forward has provided top-50 value in eight-cat formats. Flagg started slowly, but he’s picked up the production by the game, most recently earning Western Conference Rookie of the Month honors. Given Dallas’ many injuries, Flagg will be asked to do a lot, even if his days as a point guard seem to be over.

The 2025 first-overall selection picked up where he left off following his career-best scoring performance against the Clippers. While he didn’t reach the 30-point mark, Flagg picked his spots and made more than half of his attempts en route to securing his seventh 20-point game of the season. The rookie forward seems to be progressing nicely a quarter of the way through the season. Fantasy managers should expect Flagg to continue playing well as he gets more game experience under his belt.

Flagg was rolling on Saturday, scoring 21 points in the first half. The Clippers couldn’t come up with an answer for the rookie, who finished with his first 30-point game. Flagg was efficient offensively, shooting 13-of-19 from inside the arc, becoming the youngest player in league history to score at least 35 points in a game. A sixth-round player in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks, his season-long value has cracked the top-100. It will be fun to watch Flagg’s progression, as he has already made strides over the season’s first month. The Mavericks play four games in Week 7, starting with the Nuggets on Monday.

Flagg didn’t do much scoring on Friday, but he did finish three rebounds shy of his first career triple-double. The rookie did notch his third double-double, and the three steals will help some fantasy managers as well. After a slow start to the season, Flagg has provided fifth-round value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. While his progression has not significantly impacted the Mavericks’ win total, Flagg’s fantasy value has improved, which is good to see.

Flagg’s performance on Monday was unspectacular. He shot inefficiently from the field, failed to register a make from beyond the arc, and finished with three assists to three turnovers. He’s struggled with his shooting in his two games since notching a career-high 29 points, but has remained solid on the glass. The Mavericks, who have lost four of their past five games, could benefit from more production from Flagg as the rookie continues to get more reps under his belt.

This wound up being a thrilling showdown between the next generation of up-and-coming stars for a pair of cellar-dwelling Western Conference squads with Flagg serving as the Mavericks’ primary offensive catalyst throughout the night. The 18-year-old prodigy showed zero signs of rust following a one-game absence due to illness earlier this week, knocking down 12 of 15 shots from inside three-point range, while routinely getting into the paint to take advantage of his size, athleticism and shot-creating ability. He was especially clutch in the late stages of this one, scoring 21 of his points in the second-half. He’s in the midst of an extremely strong stretch, averaging just under 22 points per-game over his last three contests, delivering fourth-round value for fantasy purposes during that span.

Flagg is good to go after missing Wednesday’s loss to the Knicks. His return means Klay Thompson will head back to the bench after hitting three three-pointers and scoring 13 points. Thompson is rostered in only 15 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and for good reason, as he has struggled thus far.

Initially questionable, Flagg will miss a game for the first time in his NBA career. Given the other injury-related absences the Mavericks are dealing with, this is another significant loss for the team. Naji Marshall could move into the starting lineup, and he’s worth streaming wherever available.

Flagg is a late addition to the injury report, and Caleb Martin is also dealing with an illness, so it may be going around the team. If Flagg is unavailable, Naji Marshall should slide into the starting unit in his place, making him worth streaming in.

This one got out of hand quickly as Minnesota built a 32-point lead by the end of the third quarter. Flagg was one of the few bright spots for the injury-depleted Mavericks as he shot 60 percent from the floor and hit two of three from beyond the arc. It’s been an up-and-down rookie campaign so far, which isn’t unexpected as he acclimates to everyday life at the highest level on a Dallas squad that appears headed towards a potential full-scale teardown. Dallas will attempt to turn things around when they host the Knicks on Wednesday evening.

After shooting 1-of-3 from the field in the first half, Flagg was far more assertive. He shot 4-of-5 from the field in the third quarter, and the rookie forward hit two key shots in the extra period to help Dallas pull away. Flagg is going to have his growing pains, as most rookies do, but he’s provided sixth-round value in nine-cat formats over the past week, according to Basketball Monster. Things appear to be looking up for Flagg.

Flagg had a well-rounded performance against the Suns. He found production on the glass and made plays for others through his passing, while tallying five stocks on the defensive end. His scoring was also notable, despite his struggles from the field. Regardless, he showed how versatile he can be on both ends of the floor, and continues to be one of the Mavericks’ bright spots in what’s been a rough start to the season.

Flagg’s 26 points were the most he’s had in a game so far in his young career. It’s the third time he’s had at least 20 points in 11 games this year. Flagg grabbed nine rebounds for the second time in his last four games. The 18-year-old rookie still hasn’t had a monster game, but has been a consistent scored and rebounder. The Mavericks have three more games this week, starting with the Suns on Wednesday.

Flagg logged only 27 minutes in the fairly one-sided contest between the Mavs and Grizzlies on Friday. In his time on the floor, the 2025 first-overall pick shot efficiently from the field and reached double figures in scoring for the eighth time over his first nine regular-season games of his career. Flagg has yet to log any truly jaw-dropping stat lines during his rookie season. Rather, he has been a consistent scorer and rebounder who has shown that he can be relied upon for nightly impact on both ends of the floor.

Flagg’s 20 points led the Mavericks on Wednesday as the team was without Anthony Davis yet again. The 18-year-old small forward has had at least 15 points in three of his last four games. Flagg isn’t lighting it up from the field just yet, but fantasy managers have to be encouraged by his performance in the other categories, especially his lack of turnovers as he has just two against the Pelicans.

While Flagg’s numbers were solid, he struggled at times to deal with Detroit’s physicality. He’s shooting just 37.3 percent from the field thus far, but all isn’t lost for the rookie. Flagg is ranked just outside the top-100 in nine-cat formats, thanks to solid averages across the board and a low turnover number (1.8 per game). And it hasn’t helped that the Mavericks have struggled with injuries, most notably Anthony Davis. Flagg will be fine, but fantasy managers will have to find a way to compensate for his low field-goal percentage for a bit.

After struggling mightily in Monday’s loss to the Thunder, Flagg was considerably better against the Pacers. Not only did he shoot over 50 percent from the field, but the first overall pick also recorded his second double-double. All that was missing from Flagg’s final stat line was a steal, and he did not attempt a three-pointer after going 0-of-3 on Monday. If Anthony Davis (leg) misses time after exiting Wednesday’s game during the first quarter, the Mavericks may put even more on Flagg’s plate offensively.

Flagg got his welcome to the NBA moment against the defending champion Thunder as he missed eight of his nine shots from the floor and Dallas failed to break the century mark. The 18-year-old prodigy may not have a worse game over the remainder of his rookie season as his all-around game should enable him to contribute as a playmaker even when his shot isn’t falling. There will be brighter days ahead for Flagg — and his fantasy managers — as he continues to adjust to life in the NBA. He became the fifth-youngest player in league history to score 20 or more points when he poured in 22 during Sunday’s win over the Raptors. Flagg had a shoulder wrap on when he was on the bench throughout the night. He expects to get scans on his left shoulder, but he expects to be available against the Pacers on Wednesday.

After struggling in his first official NBA game, Flagg has looked more comfortable in his last two. Sunday’s outing was the best for the rookie, who shot over 50 percent from the field. What may have helped was that point guard D’Angelo Russell got more rotation minutes, which helped lighten the playmaking workload the Mavericks have asked Flagg to shoulder. Flagg will have the occasional rough night given the role and lack of NBA experience. However, more nights should look like Sunday as he gets better acclimated to the pro game.
