When the Dallas Mavericks miraculously won the NBA draft lottery last week, it was assumed immediately that they would draft Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 pick. Whichever team won the draft would be expected to select the Duke standout.

Jason Kidd was asked what the plan would be for Cooper Flagg if the Mavericks were to draft him with the No. 1 pick.

Flagg has been the obvious No. 1 pick all season, but Harrison's decision to trade the 25-year-old Dončić for a 31-year-old Anthony Davis suggested that Dallas was all-in on the present. Had that been the case, Dallas could have offered Flagg for a number of veteran All-Stars, most notably Giannis Antetokounmpo should he become available.
