The Dallas Mavericks have two All-Star-level creators in Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving, but can the Mavs find enough ball handling beyond them to start the NBA season? Head coach Dusty May says ball handling will be a cumulative effort as the Mavs prepare for heavy ball pressure from the Houston Rockets in the opener.
The Dallas Mavericks have two All-Star-level creators in Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving, but can the Mavs find enough ball handling beyond them to start the NBA season? Head coach Dusty May says ball handling will be a cumulative effort as the Mavs prepare for heavy ball pressure from the Houston Rockets in the opener.
Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) breaks down Dusty May’s quote of the day and why the Mavs’ biggest strength on offense might also be their biggest issue. Nick looks at how Naji Marshall, Marcus Sasser, Sergio de Larrea, PJ Washington, Max Christie, Zaccharie Risacher, Caleb Martin, and Morez Johnson Jr. fit into a ball-handling-by-committee approach. Can the Dallas Mavericks cobble together enough shot creation, or do they need to add another creator around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving?
