Cooper Flagg deixou a partida de sexta-feira, em Indiana, com uma lesão no ombro esquerdo, depois de sofrer falta dura de Aaron Nesmith num contra-ataque, segundo o The Athletic.
O lance aconteceu no fim do segundo quarto, quando o Dallas vencia por 33 pontos. Nesmith recebeu falta flagrante 1, e ele e Naji Marshall levaram técnica depois que Marshall saiu em defesa do companheiro. Flagg continuou em quadra para cobrar e converter dois lances livres, mas saiu na sequência e foi descartado com dor no ombro esquerdo; Marshall iniciou o segundo tempo sem o atual Rookie do Ano.
Até a lesão, a atuação era forte: 14 pontos, seis assistências, cinco rebotes, três roubos e um toco em 17 minutos.
Na mesma lista de lesões, um técnico classificou uma distensão oblíqua como relatório positivo, dizendo que o jogador desfalca o próximo jogo com certeza e que a expectativa é de um quadro dia a dia, não de longo prazo.
No mesmo relatório, o pivô All-Star Jalen Duren — que renovou com o Detroit num contrato de cinco anos por US$ 200MM — sofreu uma lesão na coxa direita na partida de sexta-feira, fora de casa, em Miami. Sobre o lance com Flagg, o companheiro May disse: “O Nesmith é um grande cara. Um jogador e tanto. Conheço ele desde o colégio. Um lance infeliz.”
