Availability
Ryan Nembhard is being promoted from a two-way contract to a two-year standard deal with the Dallas Mavericks according to multiple reports. Dallas is expected to waive Tyus Jones to open the spot on the roster.
Fantasy Impact
Nembhard, who went undrafted in the 2025 NBA Draft out of Gonzaga, has been on a two-way deal with the Mavericks this season. He has not appeared in a game since February 5 as he was approaching the 50-game limit for two-way players. He has played 38 games for Dallas and is averaging 6.7 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 4.9 assists. Nembhard has started 17 contests and contributed 9.9 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 6.1 assists while making 44.4% of his three-point attempts in those contests.
Ryan Nembhard scored eight points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3PT, 2-2 FT) with four rebounds and 10 assists in Thursday's 144-122 victory over the Utah Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Nembhard logged 23 minutes on Thursday with Max Christie (illness) and Cooper Flagg (ankle) sidelined, recording double-digit assists for the first time since December 15. He should continue to see increased opportunities as long as both remain sidelined.
Ryan Nembhard bounced back from a recent scoreless outing to record his third double-double of December during Monday's loss to the Jazz. The rookie guard finished with 14 points on 6-of-12 shooting and dished out a team-high 11 assists.
Fantasy Impact
In addition to his playmaking, Nembhard chipped in four rebounds, one steal, and two three-pointers. Although he committed four turnovers, he was a key contributor in the high-scoring contest, serving as one of four Mavericks to score in double figures.
Ryan Nembhard scored 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-3 3PT) to go along with five rebounds, 13 assists and one steal in the Mavericks 118-108 win over the Heat.
Fantasy Impact
Nembhard continues to take advantage of his extended playing time as a starter. He just dished 10 assists in a start in the Mavs previous game. He should continue to earn more playing time.
Ryan Nembhard is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Heat.
Fantasy Impact
Nembhard is looking to avoid missing a sixth straight game. He remains off the fantasy radar when he is healthy.
