Still yet to turn 20 years old, Cooper Flagg making history has become a nightly occurrence early in his NBA career.
And on Sunday as he continues to build on a strong start to his sophomore season, Flagg did it again in the Dallas Mavericks’ dominating 130-93 win over the Brooklyn Nets.
Copper Flagg made more NBA history for his age
Flagg scored 25 points and recorded a double-double with 12 assists. He also brought down five rebounds while connecting on 8-of-13 shots from the field and 3-of-5 from three. But what was most impressive is he put up those numbers in just 28 minutes on the court.
Flagg became the first teenager in leaguer history to ever post 25-plus points, at least five rebounds and 12 assists or more in under 30 minutes.
He’s now surpassed 20 points in back-to-back games and reached a double-double of some kind in three in a row.
