Even without Flagg and Gonzaga’s Ryan Nembhard, multiple Mavs showed sparks in Wednesday afternoon’s 90-82 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

The 19-year-old guard recorded a double-double (16 points, 10 rebounds) along with four assists, a block, and a steal in 6 minutes of action. He was the game's leading scorer right behind teammate KJ Simpson, who logged 18 points and seven assists. Both Flagg and Knueppel had standout freshmen seasons at Duke last year.
