Flagg ended with 19 points (6-19 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 123-99 loss to Milwaukee.

Flagg delivered a better performance than in his previous game, when he posted 12 points on 5-for-19 shooting in a loss to the Timberwolves on Monday. However, the star rookie has been struggling with his shot considerably in recent weeks, perhaps showing signs of fatigue from the long grind of his first season in the NBA. Flagg has gone three straight games without draining a three-pointer, but the long-range woes date back to March 6 when he returned from a foot sprain. In his last 15 games, Flagg is averaging 19.9 points per game but is shooting just 18.2 percent from beyond the arc while attempting multiple threes in all but two of those contests.
