Cooper Flagg has had a sensational rookie season with the Dallas Mavericks, and there is only one game remaining. He’s averaging 21.2 PPG, 6.7 RPG, and 4.6 APG, as well as over 2.0 stocks per game. It’s been a historic season, and yet, he’s not a landslide to take home the Rookie of the Year award.
Kon Knueppel of the Charlotte Hornets has also had a historic season for a much better team, as he leads the NBA in three-pointers made, blowing away the rookie three-point record over a month ago. That has had media and fans debating who deserves the award most.
In an effort to give their star rookie a boost, the Mavericks took to X/Twitter with a thread to support Cooper Flagg.
