Anthony Davis’ role in Dallas faces shift as Cooper Flagg enters the NBA Draft

Anthony Davis' move to the Dallas Mavericks was one of the biggest headlines of the 2024-25 NBA season.

Cooper Flagg interviews with non-Dallas Maverick team before NBA Draft

The 2025 NBA Draft may already have its consensus No. 1 pick in Duke phenom Cooper Flagg, but that hasn't stopped other franchises from doing their due diligence.
