Daniel Gafford

Gafford scored 14 points and four rebounds in 20 minutes of play on Tuesday. He also had one assist, one steal, and one block in the win.

Fantasy Impact

Gafford seems to be ceding time to second-year player Derek Lively, which limits his upside. His role could continue to change as the year evolves, and he may lose more fantasy value if Lively continues to play well and increases his playing time.

Daniel Gafford is questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers.

Fantasy Impact

Gafford missed practice on Thursday after only playing nine minutes in Tuesday's win. Dereck Lively should continue to take on a big role off the bench regardless of if Gafford is active or not.

Daniel Gafford has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Fantasy Impact

Gafford and Maxi Kleber have both been ruled out with Dallas having nothing to play for. Dwight Powell should see the court more as a result.

Daniel Gafford scored 26 points (12-12 FG, 2-4 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in the Mavericks 130-104 win over the Hornets.

Fantasy Impact

Gafford tied his season-high in points on a night where he scored 18 points in the second half. He should continue to play a big role in the paint for Dallas.

Daniel Gafford notched a double-double for the Mavericks Friday night, grabbing 15 rebounds and chipping in 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-2 FT) while also blocking three shots and dishing out five assists in a 108-106 win over the Warriors.

Fantasy Impact

Gafford continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor of late, finishing with at least three rebounds and six points in each of his last five games for the Mavericks. The 25-year-old continues to make the most of a limited role as part of a Dallas starting five centered around duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, averaging 10.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 2.1 blocks per game to go along with a usage rate of 14.4% so far this season.
