Dallas Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks power forward P.J. Washington (knee) will likely miss a fifth consecutive game on Thursday versus Utah. He has been listed on the injury report as doubtful. Washington has been out of commission due to a right knee sprain. The injury has given Naji Marshall a chance to run with the starters. He has averaged 10.8 points and 4.5 rebounds in the role. Utah plays at one of the fastest paces in the league and struggles on the glass, making this a very promising fantasy matchup for Marshall and the rest of the Mavericks.

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (knee) is listed as probable for Thursday's matchup against Utah. He's been a regular on the injury report this season but hasn't missed any games and is on track to play on Thursday. Doncic averages 28.5 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.9 assists, and 1.5 steals for the campaign. He has already seen the Jazz once this season and struggled mightily with his shot, going 5-for-22 from the field to finish with 15 points. The five-time All-Star has scored at least 24 points in all of his other outings.

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is good to go for Tuesday's matchup against the Golden State Warriors. He was listed as probable heading into this one. However, Doncic was downgraded to a game-time decision hours before the contest. Fortunately, fantasy managers will have the multi-time All-Star in the lineup, although that means Spencer Dinwiddie and Jaden Hardy won't be worth starting.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) won't suit up for Tuesday's meeting with the Golden State Warriors. The 2019 No. 12 overall pick has averaged 9.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.6 steals, and 1.3 blocks this season. Unfortunately, he'll now miss his fourth-straight contest because of a knee injury he picked up during the November 4 contest against the Indiana Pacers. With Luka Doncic (groin) in danger of missing this one, Washington could have been in line to see more scoring opportunities. But now that he's out again, Naji Marshall, averaging 12.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in three starts during the 2024-25 campaign, has streaming potential.

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is now considered a game-time decision heading into Tuesday's matchup with Golden State. The multi-time All-Star was initially listed as probable, so most assumed he'd be out there. However, he's in danger of missing his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. If Doncic can't get on the floor, Kyrie Irving would take over most of the ball-handling duties, with Spencer Dinwiddie and Jaden Hardy in line for more work and scoring chances.
