  • Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Won't play Tuesday

    Marshall (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Marshall will miss a second straight game due to an illness, but Dallas may get Klay Thompson (foot) back in action Tuesday. Marshall's next chance to suit up will come Thursday in Washington.

  • Mavericks' Klay Thompson: Questionable Tuesday

    Thompson (foot) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies, Mark Followill of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

    Thompson has been sidelined for the Mavericks' last four games due to left foot plantar fasciitis. With Kyrie Irving (shoulder) available for Tuesday's NBA Cup game, Jaden Hardy and Quentin Grimes would be the top candidates to be in Dallas' starting lineup if Thompson is unable to play.

  • Mavericks' Kyrie Irving: Good to go Tuesday vs. Grizzlies

    Irving (shoulder) is not listed on the NBA injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Irving was sidelined for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to right shoulder soreness. It was just the second game he missed this season, but he will be available for Tuesday's NBA Cup showdown. Over his last 10 games, Irving averaged 25.8 points, 6.3 assists, 4.9 rebounds and 0.8 steals over 35.1 minutes per game.

  • Mavericks' Dereck Lively: Iffy to play Tuesday vs. Memphis

    Lively (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies, Mark Followill of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

    Lively was sidelined for Sunday's game against Portland due to a right knee injury he suffered late in the fourth quarter of Saturday's clash against Utah. Daniel Gafford would be in line to start at center for a second straight game if Lively is unable to play, while Maxi Kleber would see an uptick in playing time off the pine.

  • Mavericks' Spencer Dinwiddie: Scores 20 points off bench

    Dinwiddie had 20 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), one rebound, five assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Sunday's 137-131 victory over the Trail Blazers.

    Dinwiddie was the third-highest scorer for the Mavericks in this win, and the veteran floor general continues to make a sizable impact off the bench for Dallas. He's arguably going through his most productive stretch of the season, as he's scored at least 20 points in three of his last four appearances. The uptick in usage rate is directly tied to the absences Dallas has had of late, with Klay Thompson (foot), Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Naji Marshall (illness) all missing Sunday's contest.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Strong showing Sunday

    Gafford registered 19 points (7-11 FG, 5-7 FT), four rebounds and four assists across 27 minutes during Sunday's 137-131 win over Portland.

    Gafford was efficient from the floor and posted a strong stat line on both ends of the court. This was his first start since Nov. 12 and extended his solid run of play, as the big man has scored in double digits in 13 appearances in a row. He's averaging 14.1 points per game while shooting an impressive 75.5 percent from the floor in that span.

  • Mavericks' Quentin Grimes: Impresses in win over Portland

    Grimes racked up 28 points (9-13 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, three assists and five steals in 36 minutes during Sunday's 137-131 win over Portland.

    Grimes topped his season-high scoring mark for a third straight game, and this was the first time he reached the 25-point plateau all season long. Grimes got the start in the backcourt due to the absence of Kyrie Irving (shoulder), and with Klay Thompson (foot) and Naji Marshall (illness) being less than 100 percent healthy as well, Grimes could remain in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies. Grimes will remain a solid fantasy play in all formats as long as he remains in the starting lineup.

  • Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Delivers full line in return

    Doncic (wrist) compiled 36 points (15-24 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 13 assists, seven rebounds and three steals in 36 minutes Sunday in the Mavericks' 137-131 win over the Trail Blazers.

    Dallas was without five rotation players Sunday, but Doncic's return from a five-game absence due to a right wrist sprain helped compensate for the lack of depth. With backcourt running mate Kyrie Irving (shoulder) among the players who were sidelined, Quentin Grimes (28 points) and Spencer Dinwiddie (20 points) saw increased involvement, but the offense ran through Doncic, who immediately resumed producing at an elite level. For the season, Doncic has still noticed an overall downturn in efficiency from the field (44.9 percent) and three-point range (32.9 percent), which has played a part in his scoring average dropping from 33.9 points per game to 28.6. His strong shooting performance Sunday at least offers hope that he won't be compromised by his wrist moving forward.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Starting Sunday

    Gafford will start Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

    Gafford enters the starting five due to Dereck Lively (knee) being sidelined. This marks Gafford's first start since Nov. 12 and his 12th of the season. Through 11 starts, Gafford holds averages of 12.2 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 blocks in 21.2 minutes per game.

  • Mavericks' Jaden Hardy: Starting sans Irving on Sunday

    Hardy will enter the starting five in Sunday's game against Portland, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

    With Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Klay Thompson (foot) sidelined, Hardy will get the start on the wing alongside Quentin Grimes. In his last five outings (one start), Hardy has averaged 8.0 points, 1.4 assists, 1.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 17.2 minutes per game.

  • Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Back in action Sunday

    Doncic (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against Portland.

    Doncic will suit up after a five-game absence due to a sprained right wrist. The superstar will be tasked with leading a Mavericks squad that's without several starters, including Kyrie Irving (shoulder), Klay Thompson (foot), Dereck Lively (knee) and Naji Marshall (illness). In his last five outings, Doncic has averaged 26.8 points, 7.0 assists, 7.0 rebounds and 2.0 steals while shooting 49.5 percent from the field across 35.6 minutes per game.

  • Mavericks' Kyrie Irving: Won't suit up Sunday

    Irving (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Portland.

    Irving will miss just his second outing of the season due to right shoulder soreness. In the superstar's absence, Quentin Grimes and Jaden Hardy will likely see increased roles. Irving's next chance to feature will come Tuesday against Memphis.

  • Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Ruled out Sunday

    Marshall (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Portland.

    Marshall left the first leg of Dallas' back-to-back set early due to an illness during Saturday's win over Utah, in which he contributed three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across 13 minutes. The 26-year-old has carved out a significant role with the club this season, and his next chance to play will come Tuesday against Memphis.

  • Mavericks' Klay Thompson: Out Sunday

    Thompson (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Portland.

    Thompson will miss a fourth straight game due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Naji Marshall (illness) and Dereck Lively (knee) have already been ruled out, while Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Luka Doncic (wrist) are questionable, so Dallas may be extremely shorthanded Sunday. Thompson's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against Memphis.

  • Mavericks' Kyrie Irving: Questionable Sunday vs. Portland

    Irving is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Portland due to right shoulder soreness.

    Irving could miss the second leg of Dallas' back-to-back set due to shoulder soreness. The star guard was able to suit up during Saturday's win over Utah, during which he posted 30 points (11-25 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, seven rebounds and four steals across 36 minutes. If Irving is sidelined, Quentin Grimes and Jaden Hardy should receive an uptick in minutes, especially if Luka Doncic (wrist) misses his sixth consecutive matchup.

  • Mavericks' Dereck Lively: Won't play Sunday

    Lively has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a right knee hyperextension.

    Lively left Saturday's win over Utah late in the fourth quarter, and while he returned to the bench, he never reentered the game. His next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against Memphis. In Lively's absence, Daniel Gafford will likely move into the starting lineup, while Maxi Kleber is a candidate for increased minutes off the bench.

  • Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Iffy Sunday

    Doncic (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Doncic is in jeopardy of missing his sixth consecutive game due to a sprained right wrist. The superstar returned to practice earlier in the week, and the questionable tag suggests he is nearing a return to game action. If Doncic is unable to suit up, Quentin Grimes and Jaden Hardy should see an uptick in playing time, especially if Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is sidelined as well.
