Mavericks Notes: Flagg, Irving, Risacher, China Trip

Cooper Flagg lived up to his star billing at the NBA’s China Games, turning in a performance that matched the off-court hype, writes Brian Windhorst of ESPN . Flagg’s picture was posted on the side of buildings to promote the event, and he released his personal New Balance logo at a mall in Macao. Once the games started, Flagg offered a reminder of why he’s the reigning Rookie of the Year and may be destined for more awards in his second NBA season.
