Cooper Flagg ‘Trusting The Work’ Despite Early Struggles In Point Guard Role

November 3, 2025 by Real GM

Cooper Flagg has had some struggles on offense as he’s been asked to play point guard on a Dallas Mavericks’ team that lacks other playmakers and floor spacers. Flagg is averaging 13.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks per game while shooting 37 percent from the field and 29 percent on three-pointers.

“It’s a tough league. It’s a transition,” Flagg said. “Honestly, I haven’t made a lot of shots or been as efficient as I would’ve wanted to, but I’m gonna just keep trusting the work. It’s nothing I think they should be worried about. I’m not worried about anything.”

Jason Kidd explained the Mavericks’ reasoning behind starting at point guard.
“There’s a couple of things behind him playing point guard. One, is our health,” Kidd said. The other part about handling the ball is being able to handle the pressure when April comes around and you’re playing for something greater. Just to have that experience early on here is a blessing and I think it will only help him in this marathon.”
