Max Christie scored 20 points (7-15 FG, 2-8 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go with four assists and three rebounds in Thursday's loss to the Spurs.
Fantasy Impact
After not scoring more than 13 points in any of his previous four games, Christie got back on track Thursday, looking more like the player who scored over 20 in four straight games during a mid-January stretch. Christie is a sharpshooter (42.9% 3PT) who can provide solid point totals for fantasy managers.
Max Christie led the Mavericks offense Saturday night, scoring 24 points (8-18 FG, 4-10 3PT, 4-4 FT) while also dishing out three assists, recording one steal, and grabbing two rebounds in a 116-110 loss to the Lakers.
Fantasy Impact
Christie continues a steady stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with two or more assists, two or more rebounds, and 10 or more points in each of his last five games. The guard continues to flash explosive potential from beyond the arc as part of an inconsistent Dallas lineup for head coach Jason Kidd, averaging 13.3 points, 2.2 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game to go along with a usage rate of 16.0% so far this season.
Max Christie scored a season-high 26 points (9-13 FG, 8-10 3PT, 0-0 FT) and added six rebounds and two assists in the Mavericks' 114-97 win over the Knicks on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Christie finished two points shy of his career-high of 28 points against Portland on January 2, 2025. His eight three-pointers, however, were easily a career-best. Christie has now scored at least 22 points in back-to-back games and has five 20-point efforts this season - four in the last nine games. In his eight games in January, Christie is averaging 17.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.5 assists. He is on a heater right now and, with his fantasy ownership still relatively low, is worth a flier for owners in need of points and threes while he's hot.
Max Christie is listed as available for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz.
Fantasy Impact

Max Christie (illness) has been listed as probable to play Saturday against the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Christie missed both games of the Mavericks' back-to-back on Wednesday and Thursday due to being under the weather. It appears that he is ready to return to the court Saturday, though, likely sending Jaden Hardy back to the bench. Christie has been in a nice rhythm this month, reaching double-digit points in all six games he has played while averaging 14.8 overall.
