Cooper Flagg had a breakout game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday, but it was overshadowed by a no-call late in the contest. With 17.9 seconds left, Flagg came off a screen with Kyle Kuzma chasing him and fell on an in-bounds play. Kuzma collected the ball and scored on the other end to give the Bucks a three-point lead.
Kuzma seemingly grabbed Flagg's jersey on that play, which led to the Mavericks rookie hitting the hardwood. The Mavericks could have taken the lead on that possession as the Bucks were out of fouls, and Flagg would have gone to the line. However, the game ended 116-114 in the Bucks' favor.

P.J. Washington had the chance to tie it up after Giannis Antetokounmpo fouled him on a 3-point play, but the forward only made his first shot from the line.

Cooper Flagg should’ve been at the line these refs would’ve called that for Giannis smh
Refs just cheated my boy Cooper Flagg! Kuzma held his Jersey. This is crazy
This is why we need AI to replace referees — Kyle Kuzma fouled Cooper Flagg, causing him to fall down… no call and 2 easy points for the Bucks. Referees need to be replaced by AI.
