The No. 1 pick is going to be "water" when he made 5 of 21 debuts in the summer league? Edwards also made 4+5 mistakes in the summer league. Is it "water"? Some players are at their peak when they debut, while others are bricks that build walls - coming from behind. Although Flag felt cold, he contributed 10 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, plus 3 steals and 1 block. In addition, Flag also impressed head coach Kidd, and his performance of 4 assists and 1 turnover in the game showed maturity on the organization. Although it was a summer league game, the Lakers' defense against Flag was targeted. The performance on the defensive end should be what the Mavericks want the most.

Ten thousand steps back, even if Flag's independent offense has been inefficient, Flag's performance on the defensive end can help the Mavericks. After the 23-24 season, the Mavericks lost the wing defensive pioneer Jones Jr., and their outstanding athletic talent and top-level leadership and defense capabilities are still vivid in my mind.

Flag not only has no distinction between Jones Jr. in terms of athletic ability, but also has top-level confrontational ability, air confrontation and rebounding position, which are all very outstanding. The Chase Block that changed the game trend is a good example. The Mavericks really need it from the defensive prediction from the weak test rotation to assist in defense.

Flag felt bad, but showed violent aesthetics. His first goal was the iconic one-handed buckle. When he pushed the ball to three-quarters of the court, he cleverly used a non-usual-handed change breakthrough, which was a perfect wing to end the attack. In the second quarter, he almost completed the dunk against Kloko. If he succeeded, he would definitely lock in the top five goals in the summer league!

Many people think that Nemhad, who efficiently scored 21 points and 5 assists in 8 of 14, snatched the limelight of No. 1 pick Flag. In fact, the defensive pressure faced by Namhad is far less than that of Flag. In other words, players like Nemhard, the Mavericks and the entire league are very rare.

The formal contract distribution through excellent performance in the playoffs is a good example. Flag's dominance on the defensive end has begun to show, and the organization has also shown plasticity. Therefore, Flag's significance to the Mavericks is profound.

can play the role of Jones Jr. in the defensive end, and also have the same awareness of assisting and remedial defense as Washington, and can also share the pressure on the team's organization. When Irving and Davis attract defense, they can also assume the responsibility of the third scoring point.
