Flagg was listed as doubtful for Sunday's game due to left ankle injury management, and the Mavericks are next set to play against the Timberwolves on Wednesday.

Flagg is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bucks due to left ankle injury management.
EDGE Analysis
Flagg missed two consecutive games earlier in January due to a left ankle injury. It appears the rookie will be sidelined for Sunday's contest to avoid aggravating the issue, and his absence would mean more minutes for Ryan Nembhard, Brandon Williams (knee), Jaden Hardy and D'Angelo Russell. Assuming he's ruled out, Flagg's next opportunity to play would be Wednesday against the Timberwolves.

Flagg registered 21 points (8-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-7 3Pt), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 30 minutes during the Mavericks' 123-115 win over the Warriors on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Flagg recorded his sixth double-double of the season Thursday while logging a career high in rebounds. He ended up playing 30 minutes despite being originally slated to operate on a minutes restriction, indicating that he is past an ankle injury that forced him to miss two games in January. Since Jan. 1, Flagg has averaged 16.8 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.4 steals over 31.1 minutes per game.

Flagg will be held between 20-to-25 minutes Thursday against the Warriors, Noah Weber of TheSmokingCuban.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Flagg logged 28 minutes in his return from an ankle injury Monday against the Knicks, but the team will aim to keep his workload a bit smaller Thursday evening as a precaution. This could mean a few additional minutes for Ryan Nembhard or Brandon Williams.

Flagg (ankle) tallied 18 points (7-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-6 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 28 minutes Monday in the Mavericks' 114-97 win over the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
Flagg was back in action Monday after the left ankle sprain that he sustained in last Wednesday's loss to the Nuggets had kept him out for two straight games. The standout rookie slid back into the starting five at point guard but took on a more subdued role on offense than usual, as he finished third behind teammates Max Christie (26 points) and Naji Marshall (19 points) in scoring. Flagg was also eased back in with a slightly lighter workload than normal -- he averages 33.9 minutes per game for the season -- but look for his playing time to pick up in the Mavericks' next game Thursday versus the Warriors.
