Description

Cooper Flagg, an 18-year-old basketball prodigy, shattered LeBron Jamess scoring record for players his age, dropping 42 points in a game. Flaggs impressive performance included 13 field goals, 15 free throws, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal. Despite topping Jamess rookie season high, Flagg still has a way to go to match legends like Wilt Chamberlain and contemporary rookies like Brandon Jennings and Allen Iverson. The Mavericks, Flaggs team, have a 10-17 record and will face the Nuggets and Warriors in national broadcasts next week.
