Flagg (ankle) was ruled out for the Mavs against the Nuggets.
Cooper Flagg won't return for the Dallas Mavericks' Wednesday clash against the Denver Nuggets.
Flagg left with six minutes to go in the second quarter. He fell to the ground as he was defending Peyton Watson, and it appeared that he tweaked his left ankle.
Flagg entered the locker room but ultimately returned to the game. Eventually, the Mavericks announced at halftime that he won't be playing again.
He ended the night with six points in 15 assists, as Ryan Nembhard took his spot on the team's starting lineup. Flagg isn't on the team's bench as the game resumed in the second half.
