Fantasy Impact: At first, it appeared that Davis‘s season was in jeopardy as surgery looked all but imminent, as it would have knocked him out for several months. However, it appears that he may have avoided that fate, with a now potential return near the end of February. With Dallas likely out of the play-in by the time he returns, the Mavericks still could shut him down for the rest of the season. But, this does offer a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers.

Fantasy Impact: Christie has been a part of the Mavericks' starting lineup in each of the last eight games, but that streak is likely to come to an end Wednesday. Jaden Hardy and Caleb Martin could see extra run.
