Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is probable heading into Tuesday's meeting with the Warriors. This is his second time listed on the injury report because of a left groin strain. However, it didn't keep Doncic off the floor for Sunday's loss to the Denver Nuggets. He logged 40 minutes in that one, so he should see his usual workload versus Golden State, barring a setback. Keep him starting in all fantasy formats.
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is questionable to play in Sunday's matchup with the Nuggets. The multi-time All-Star amassed 30 points, seven assists, and seven boards in Friday's loss to the Suns. However, he popped up on the injury report because of a groin strain, so it's possible he won't be on the court on Sunday. If that's the case, Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson should pick up most of the slack on the scoring end. In addition, Jaden Hardy could find himself in the starting lineup and be worth streaming in deeper fantasy setups.
Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) will miss his second game in a row dealing with a sprained right knee. The former Charlotte Hornet has been part of the starting lineup throughout the start of the season, but will make way for Naji Marshall while he remains on the sidelines. With Dereck Lively II (shoulder) also watching from the sidelines, Daniel Gafford will also see more minutes. Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Dwight Powell will see some opportunities off of the bench, but they serve as streaming options in deeper leagues.
Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) won't play on Wednesday versus the Chicago Bulls. The 26-year-old logged 35 minutes in Monday's loss to the Pacers. Unfortunately, he was observed favoring his right leg late in the contest. There's a chance his absence may extend beyond Wednesday night. If that's the case, it would be a tough blow for the Mavericks. With Dereck Lively II (shoulder) questionable and Maxi Kleber (hamstring) out, Naji Marshall, who had 20 points in 34 minutes versus Indiana, could be in line for more action.
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.
