Some might question my decision to lead this game’s headliner with a 19-year-old forward facing one of the most stiff challenges in his conference, but you could make an argument that Cooper Flagg is a top-10 player in the NBA already.
Among players averaging at least 25 minutes per game, Flagg is 10th in player impact estimate (18.1 PIE) ahead of Jayson Tatum, Nikola Jokic, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. That trio behind him is why it might not stick, but he’s been the driving force behind a Mavericks squad shucking off demons of the Luka Doncic trade to win four of their first seven games.
However, the reigning West champions have worked out the early-season kinks in a mammoth way. San Antonio has won five games in a row, blowing the opponent out by double digits in four of them.
The shift of Dylan Harper into the starting lineup may have been needed, with the Spurs’ current starting five sporting a +29.3 net rating (NRTG) in 147 possessions together. That’ll do.
As most teams will, the Mavericks have their work cut out for them to compete at Frost Bank Center, where the Spurs are 76-28 since the start of the 2025-26 season. If there’s one thing we’ve learned about the Mavs, though, it’s to not write them off.
