Former Duke star Cooper Flagg poured in 43 points to help the Dallas Mavericks defeat the Indiana Pacers 125-122 Monday night, making history in the process.

Flagg's teammate, another Duke alum, Kyrie Irving, had a spectacular night as well, adding 35 points on 7-for-10 shooting from 3-point range.

For starters, Flagg extended his lead over LeBron James for the most 40-point games in the NBA as a teenager. Flagg now has five, while James tallied three. In Monday's game, last year's Rookie of the Year Award winner also passed Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony for the third-most points scored by a teenager.

Flagg, who is around a month and a half away from his 20th birthday, has now scored 1,732 points in his career. Another Hall of Famer, five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant, is only 27 points ahead. James may be tougher to catch, however, as he amassed 2,362 points before turning 20.
