| Paul George is being traded to the Boston Celtics along with two first-round picks and two second-round picks in exchange for Jaylen Brown. Diego Sandoval Wed, Jul 1st | Dereck Lively II has not yet been cleared to run. Ari Koslow Sun, Jun 28th | |
| Paul George is available for Game 7 on Saturday against the Celtics. Ari Koslow Sat, May 2nd | Derek Lively II (foot) will undergo season-ending surgery on his right foot. Garrett Ball Wed, Dec 10th | |
| Paul George is now probable for Saturday's game against the Celtics. Ari Koslow Sat, May 2nd | Dereck Lively II (foot) is currently without a timetable for his return. Leo Sells Thu, Dec 4th | |
| George tied his season-low Thursday — just the fifth time he's scored in single digits all year — going 0-of-5 from three and committing more turnovers than made field goals in the loss to the Rockets. He finished with seven points (2-of-8 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, one steal, and one assist. Bruno Mulé Fri, Apr 10th | Swelling and discomfort in his right foot will force Dereck Lively II to the sidelines for at least the next three games. The Mavericks announced Tuesday that they will re-evaluate the center in seven-to-ten days, a timeline that aligns with earlier reports from insider Marc Stein regarding fears of an extended absence. Bruno Mulé Tue, Nov 25th | |
| George had his least productive outing since returning from suspension Monday — going 1-of-10 from inside the arc while connecting on 4-of-5 from three, finishing with 16 points (5-of-15 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), four assists, four rebounds, and two steals in the loss to the Spurs. Bruno Mulé Tue, Apr 7th | Reports from NBA insider Marc Stein indicate there is fear within the Mavericks organization that Dereck Lively could be sidelined for an extended period due to a foot injury. While his absence from Monday's game against Miami was officially listed as injury management, this new development suggests the issue may be more serious. Bruno Mulé Tue, Nov 25th | |
