Fantasy Impact: Brunson hurt his shoulder in the beginning of the game and finished with two points (1-1 FG) before exiting. He was diagnosed with a dislocated shoulder and is currently day-to-day. Brunson should be considered questionable for Monday's tilt against the Timberwolves.

Delon Wright registered 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-2 FT) four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes in Saturday's 111-107 win over the Hawks.

Fantasy Impact: With Kristap Porzingis (rest) ruled out, Wright logged 30 minutes and scored double figures for the first time since February 7th. The 27-year old is averaging 6.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 0.5 steals his his last six games. Wright doesn't produce enough to be considered anything more than a deep-league option. The Mavericks next scheduled game is Monday, home against the Timberwolves.

Seth Curry tallied 22 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3PT, 2-2 FT) six rebounds, five assists and two steals across 38 minutes in Saturday's 111-107 to the Hawks.

Fantasy Impact: With Luka Doncic (ankle) and Kristap Porzingis (rest) ruled out, Curry led the team in minutes and dropped 22 points in Saturday's loss. He has started the past two games, averaging 14.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.5 steals and 2.0 triples during those starts. If Doncic is out an extended period of time, Curry is worth owning in all standard leagues. The Mavericks next scheduled game is Monday, home against the Timberwolves.

Tim Hardaway Jr. scored a team-high 33 points (11-22 FG, 6-14 3PT, 5-7 FT) with four rebounds, five assists and two turnovers across 35 minutes in Saturday's 111-107 loss to the Hawks.

Fantasy Impact: With Luka Doncic (ankle) and Kristap Porzingis (rest) ruled out, Hardaway led the team in scoring in Saturday's loss to Atlanta. He matched his season-high in points and has now scored exactly 33 points in two of his last four contests. The 27 year old is averaging 25.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 4.8 triples during that span. If Doncic misses extended time, Hardaway is worth owning in standard leagues. The Mavericks next scheduled game is Monday, home against the Timberwolves.

Willie Cauley-Stein (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Hawks. (Source: Brad Townsend on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: Cauley-Stein will miss Saturday’s game due to personal reasons. Look for Max Kleber to see an expanded role on Saturday. WCS next chance to return will be Monday’s tilt against the Timberwolves.

Luka Doncic has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Hawks, but isn’t expected to miss multiple contests. (Source: Brad Townsend on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: Dallas Mavericks Head Coach Rick Carlisle doesn’t expect Doncic to miss multiple games. “I don’t expect it to be, but I don’t know for sure, Carlisle said. I understand the interest. Everyone wants to know about his latest hangnail.” He will work out for tonight’s game, but his availability for Monday’s tilt against the Timberwolves won’t be known till closer to tip-off. Fantasy owners should monitor Doncic’s status over the weekend and add Jalen Brunson, in case the 20-year old misses additional games.

Kristaps Porzingis will not play Saturday against the Hawks for rest purposes. (Source: Brad Townsend on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: Porzingis will miss the second half of a back-to-back for rest purposes. The Mavericks will continue to manage Porzingis workload as he hasn’t played a second of a back-to-back since January. He should be ready to go in Monday’s tilt against the Timberwolves. Look for Delon Wright to see an expanded role with Porzingis out.

Maxi Kleber contributed 26 points (10-13 FG, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, three 3-pointers, one assist, and one block across 23 minutes in the Mavericks 112-106 win over the Magic on Friday.

Fantasy Impact: Maxi Kleber who is averaging 8.9 points for the season, unexpectedly scored 26 points off the bench to help the Mavericks win. Kleber could be useful in deep 12- team leagues that uses 3-pointers made as a stat category. The center is providing 1.6 three pointers made for the season. In standard leagues he can be left on the waiver wire list for now.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will not play in Wednesday's matchup against the Kings. (Source: Brad Townsend on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Kidd-Gilchrist has yet to play since January 10th nor has he had his Mavericks' debut. Hopes are that the former 12th overall pick will be able to suit up and contribute after the All-Star break.

Dorian Finney-Smith finished with nine points (3-10 FG, 3-10 3PT, 0-0 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two steals, two turnovers and one block across 35 minutes in a 123-119 loss to the Jazz on Monday.

Fantasy Impact: Finney-Smith was able to hit his cash-game value on Monday, scoring 25 FanDuel points for just $4300. With just a 12.71-usage percentage, Finney-Smith continues to be a GPP only play for DFS players. The swing man has benefited from teammate Luke Doncic's absence, who is looking to return this Wednesday when the Mavs host the Kings.

In order to create a roster spot for Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, the Dallas Mavericks have released Ryan Broekhoff, according to Tim MacMahon (Source: ESPN)

Fantasy Impact: While the Dallas shooting guard was not quite fantasy relevant, hopefully he will be able to find a roster spot elsewhere. It will be intriguing to see what Kidd-Gilchrist provides in his place.

J.J. Barea left Monday's game early with an ankle injury and apparently it is severe enough to keep him sidelined on Wednesday against the Grizzlies.

Fantasy Impact: Barea and backcourt teammate Seth Curry have both been ruled out while Luka Doncic also remains sidelined. Jalen Brunson, Delon Wright, and Ryan Broekhoff will look to see extended minutes in their absences.

Dwight Powell suffered a right Achilles injury and did not return to Tuesday's game against the Clippers (Source: Tim MacMahon)

Fantasy Impact: Powell, the Mavs starting center, has been a solid contributor in the frontcourt for Dallas averaging 9.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.5 assists over 26.5 minutes per game this season. Expect Maxi Kleber to fill most of the void, while Boban Marjanovic may also see more consistent playing time now.

Boban Marjanovic compiled 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one steal, and two blocks across 15 minutes of play off the bench Tuesday night.

Fantasy Impact: The towering Serbian was ultra-efficient again, nearly putting up yet another double-double in limited action. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, his use in the rotation is too sporadic to trust as of now.

Justin Jackson finished with eight points, two rebounds, and one one block in 26 minutes of action in a win over the Nets on Thursday while starting in place of Kristaps Porzingis.

Fantasy Impact: Jackson certainly has some DFS appeal with Porzingis out of the lineup. Maxi Kleber is appearing to be the add for the time being while KP is out.

Zach Randolph has announced his retirement from the NBA. (Source: Clevis Murray on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: The two-time All-Star played for five teams and averaged 16.6 points and 9.1 rebounds in his 17-year career. He most notably suited up for Memphis for eight seasons, and the Grizzlies plan to retire his jersey.

Courtney Lee finished with 12 points (4-5 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 0-0 FT), two blocks and one assist across 12 minutes in route to a win against the Warriors on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact: Lee efficiently utilized every minute that he was on the floor. During his 12 minutes, he shot a perfect 4-for-4 from behind the arc which easily carried his point total for the evening. While Lee's effort led to 19.5 fantasy points, he has only played in four games this season.
