Dallas Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (hamstring) will not be available for Tuesday's matchup against Minnesota. He missed Monday's meeting with Utah due to a right hamstring strain and will not travel with the team to Minneapolis. The rest of the Mavericks' bigs should absorb Kleber's minutes, slightly boosting their fantasy value. Dereck Lively II has been the most productive of them. Despite coming off the bench, Lively II has notched 11.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.0 blocks. Kleber gets his next chance to return on Thursday versus Houston.

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (hamstring) received a questionable tag while he continues to deal with a right hamstring strain. The 32-year-old was able to play in each of the Mavericks' first two games and played 15 minutes in both of them. While he's not on the fantasy radar right now, if he has to miss this game, his minutes will likely go to some of the starters. P.J. Washington, Daniel Gafford, and Dereck Lively II could all benefit in that scenario.

According to Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News, Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (calf) said he is ready to play Thursday in the season opener against the Spurs. Doncic missed all preseason with a left calf contusion, but the injury was considered minor. The 25-year-old also mentioned that his calf feels "perfect." Fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief as there should be no restrictions on Doncic for the Mavs first regular season contest.
