Top Mavericks News

  • Mavericks' D'Angelo Russell: Downgraded to questionable

    Russell (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Detroit.

    Russell had initially been tabbed probable for the contest due to illness, but he's now considered questionable. With Brandon Williams (Achilles) also questionable, Ryan Nembhard and Jaden Hardy could be tasked with handling most of the point guard duties.

  • Mavericks' Brandon Williams: Iffy for Thursday

    Williams (Achilles) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Williams remains day-to-day after missing Monday's game against the Jazz. Williams was able to log a full practice Wednesday, suggesting that he may be closer to probable.

  • Mavericks' D'Angelo Russell: Probable with illness

    Russell (illness) is probable for Thursday's game against the Pistons, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Russell is closing in on ending a two-game absence due to the ailment. The veteran guard is projected to play a minimal role off the bench, though his minutes likely also hinge upon Brandon Williams' (Achilles) availability.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Questionable for Thursday

    Davis (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Davis missed his first game of the month Monday against the Jazz, but he was able to log a full practice Wednesday, which bodes well for his status moving forward. Over his last four appearances, Davis is averaging 18.0 points, 11.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.8 blocks.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Productive line off bench

    Powell supplied seven points (2-4 FG, 3-6 FT) and nine rebounds across 24 minutes during Monday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Jazz.

    Powell has been called to take on a larger role recently with the loss of Dereck Lively (foot) for the season, plus Anthony Davis (calf) was ruled out for Monday's game against the Jazz. In the three games where Powell has played at least 24 minutes, he's averaged 11.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Plagued by foul trouble in return

    Gafford (ankle) tallied two points (1-1 FG), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 13 minutes in Monday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Jazz.

    Gafford took back his spot in the starting five after missing Dallas' previous three games due to right ankle injury management, but his playing time was kept in check while he played for just the second time in two weeks. Foul trouble may have been a factor in Gafford's limited minutes, as he had already racked up three personals just over two minutes into the second quarter before hitting the bench for the remainder of the period. He then played brief shifts at the beginning of the third and fourth quarters before the Mavericks went with Dwight Powell at center in overtime. Gafford should generally see his minutes pick up once he's further removed from the injury and when he's not plagued by fouls, though his playing time could still be somewhat volatile depending on matchups, especially when the Mavericks also have Anthony Davis (calf) available as an alternative at center.

  • Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Steady production Monday

    Marshall chipped in 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 36 minutes during Monday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Jazz.

    The 27-year-old forward has scored at least 15 points in six of seven games since moving into the starting lineup for the Mavericks. Marshall's consistent contributions extend beyond his offense, and during that stretch, he's averaging 15.7 points, 3.9 boards, 3.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.1 threes in 32.7 minutes a contest while shooting 64.3 percent from the floor. Dallas is also 5-2 during that time, so coach Jason Kidd isn't likely to shake up his rotations while they seem to be working, though Marshall could move to the bench once Daniel Gafford and Anthony Davis (calf) are healthy at the same time.

  • Mavericks' Ryan Nembhard: Bounces back with double-double

    Nembhard had 14 points (6-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, 11 assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Jazz.

    After going scoreless in Friday's win over the Nets, Nembhard bounced back with his third double-double in eight games since moving into the starting five. Over that stretch, the undrafted rookie out of Gonzaga is averaging 12.9 points, 7.1 assists, 2.6 boards and 2.1 threes while shooting an impressive 58.1 percent from the floor and 54.8 percent (17-for-31) from beyond the arc, as he takes full advantage of the opportunity available in Dallas' injury-plagued backcourt.

  • Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Big double-double in OT loss

    Washington chipped in 25 points (10-20 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 13 rebounds and one block over 39 minutes during Monday's 140-133 overtime loss to Utah.

    It was Washington's third double-double of the season, but his first since Nov. 5 as he's dealt with a couple of nagging injuries over the last month-plus. The 13 boards were also a season high for the 27-year-old forward, and he's drained at least one three-pointer in 10 straight contests dating back to Nov. 18, a stretch in which he's averaging 18.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.2 threes, 1.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.2 blocks.

  • Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Erupts for 42 points in loss

    Flagg registered 42 points (13-27 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 15-20 FT), seven rebounds, six assists, one steal and two blocks in 42 minutes during Monday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Jazz.

    Flagg posted the best showing of his young career and set a single-game NBA scoring record for 18-year-old players, beating LeBron James' 37-point performance in 2003, per NBA reporter Marc Stein. Flagg also set career highs in free-throw attempts and makes while recording at least one steal and one block for a third straight game. The rookie is averaging 24.2 points while shooting at a clip of 53.5 percent from the field over six December appearances.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Starting Monday

    Gafford will start against the Jazz on Monday, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

    With Anthony Davis (calf) sidelined, Gafford will get the starting nod. However, the big man will be limited to 17-20 minutes in his return from a three-game absence due to a right ankle injury, per Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News. Over his last five outings (three starts), the 27-year-old has averaged 6.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks in 22.2 minutes per tilt.

  • Mavericks' Brandon Williams: Won't go Monday

    Williams (Achilles) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Jazz.

    Williams will miss his third game of the season after picking up a right Achilles injury. Expect Ryan Nembhard and Jaden Hardy to see more opportunities in the backcourt with D'Angelo Russell (illness) and Kyrie Irving (knee) also sidelined.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Will play Monday

    Gafford (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Jazz but will be limited to 17-20 minutes, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Gafford will shed his questionable tag and return from a three-game absence due to a right ankle injury. With Anthony Davis (calf) sidelined, Gafford could get the starting nod, though he'll be limited regardless. Over his last five outings (three starts), the 27-year-old center has averaged 6.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks in 22.2 minutes per tilt.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Unavailable Monday

    Davis (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Jazz.

    Davis managed to take part in Monday's shootaround, but he isn't feeling healthy enough to give it a go. He'll miss his first game of December, opening the door for Klay Thompson and Naji Marshall to see more opportunities.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Mavericks' Brandon Williams: Iffy for Monday

    Williams is questionable for Monday's game against Utah due to right Achilles soreness.

    Williams was a very late addition to the injury report, and that's usually a troubling sign in fantasy hoops. With D'Angelo Russell (illness) already sidelined, the Mavericks may need Ryan Nembhard to shoulder a heavy workload Monday.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Present for shootaround

    Gafford (ankle) participated in Monday's morning shootaround, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Gafford has missed the past three games for Dallas, but he's officially listed as questionable for this contest. Anthony Davis (calf) is also questionable, but he was able to participate Monday morning as well.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Goes through shootaround

    Davis (calf) participated in Monday's morning shootaround, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Davis is currently listed as questionable on the official injury report, but it bodes well for his status that he was able to get some shots up Monday morning. Daniel Gafford (ankle), who is also listed as questionable, participated as well.
