Dallas center Daniel Gafford has made his reputation as one of the league's most reliable rim-runners, turning defensive stops into easy offense with his timing and athleticism. Early in the first quarter at home, rookie sensation Cooper Flagg , the 2025 first overall pick , shows off his court vision with a lob toward the rim. Gafford rises to meet it perfectly, catching and finishing the alley-oop dunk with both hands for an early momentum boost. The veteran big man added 13 rebounds. · Mar 22, 2026
