Of course, Flagg has been able to play in all three games since returning from a left midfoot sprain on March 5 and he is off the injury report completely for Tuesday’s game in Atlanta.
Dallas has ruled out both Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively II as they are both set to miss the remainder of the season while recovering from injuries.
