The Dallas Mavericks are leaning on rookie Sergio de Larrea in the NBA preseason, and the Mavs’ thin ball handling depth behind Kyrie Irving and Cooper Flagg could push him into a big role this season. Is Sergio de Larrea already the best passer on the Mavs, and can he fix the turnover issues that followed him from overseas and Summer League?
The Dallas Mavericks are leaning on rookie Sergio de Larrea in the NBA preseason, and the Mavs’ thin ball handling depth behind Kyrie Irving and Cooper Flagg could push him into a big role this season. Is Sergio de Larrea already the best passer on the Mavs, and can he fix the turnover issues that followed him from overseas and Summer League?
Nick Angstadt breaks down why Sergio de Larrea is about to be tested by the Dallas Mavericks, from Marcus Sasser’s preseason absence to Kyrie Irving’s expected rest on the NBA’s most back-to-backs. Nick explains how Dusty May has used Naji Marshall as a lead ball handler and why Cooper Flagg fits better as a secondary creator. He also digs into Sergio’s no-look and transition passing, his defense, and his assist-to-turnover numbers.
