Dallas Mavericks DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Dallas Mavericks guard Max Christie is available for Tuesday's matchup with the 76ers. Christie was involved in the blockbuster trade involving Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis. It will be his first game for the Mavs after he averaged 8.5 points, 2.7 rebound, and 1.4 assists in 46 games with the Lakers. It's unknown how much action Christie will see. However, the 21-year-old appears to have a bright future, so he's worth stashing on fantasy rosters even if he gets off to a slow start with his new squad.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Caleb Martin (hip) remains out on Sunday night against the Celtics. He'll now miss his 12th consecutive game. However, the bigger concern is the lack of depth on the 76ers' roster, with Joel Embiid (knee), Paul George (finger), Eric Gordon (knee), and Andre Drummond (toe) also on the shelf. As a result, Tyrese Maxey will continue to see plenty of opportunities to produce. Ricky Council IV, Guerschon Yabusele, and Kelly Oubre Jr. are also in line for above-average fantasy performances.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) won't suit up versus the Cavs on Sunday. The Mavericks recently acquired Anthony Davis (abdomen, trade pending) from the Lakers in exchange for Luka Doncic (calf). But AD isn't available. The same is true for Dwight Powell (hip) and Daniel Gafford (ankle). As a result, Dallas will likely feature Naji Marshall and Olivier-Maxence Prosper in the starting lineup, with Kessler Edwards and Kylor Kelley on tap for more action. However, Spencer Dinwiddie and Klay Thompson are anticipated to be the top producers on the offensive end.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Cleveland. Dallas landed Anthony Davis (abdomen, trade pending) in a blockbuster deal involving Luka Doncic (calf). However, AD won't be available for the foreseeable future. But with Gafford, Dwight Powell (hip), and P.J. Washington (knee) also sidelined versus the Cavs, the Mavs will need to play smaller than usual, resulting in increased minutes from Naji Marshall, Kessler Edwards, Kylor Kelley, and Olivier-Maxence Prosper.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) won't play on Sunday against the Cavaliers. The 32-year-old is dealing with a shoulder injury, so he'll miss his first game after appearing in the Mavericks' previous eight contests. With Daniel Gafford (ankle), P.J. Washington (knee), and Anthony Davis (abdomen, trade pending) also out, Dallas will look for increased production from Spencer Dinwiddie and Klay Thompson. That will also apply to Quentin Grimes, Naji Marshall, Dante Exum, and Jaden Hardy.
