1 out of 9! Christie: Flagg is only 18 years old and playing with the Thunder. This is normal. We should reduce the pressure on him.

In the NBA regular season, the Mavericks lost to the Thunder 94-101. After the game, Christie was interviewed.

Talking about Flagg's performance, Christie said: "This situation is normal. He is only 18 years old and is about to face the defending champion. I think as teammates, we have to do a better job to help him create open opportunities and reduce his pressure. So we have to set up better screens to help him get more open spaces. To make him feel much more comfortable than he is now, this is not entirely his problem, I think this is the responsibility of our entire team.”

In this game, Flagg made 1 of 10 shots, 0 of 4 three-pointers, and only scored 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 steals. Although there were 0 turnovers and 0 fouls, he did not score any assists, with a plus-minus value of -20!
