Since starring in his debut for Dallas, Jones has missed four games in a row and has been ruled out for a fifth-straight game. Kessler Edwards and Dwight Powell will continue to be the center options for Dallas.

Exum started on Monday in place of Brandon Williams, who is also questionable to play on Wednesday due to a hamstring injury. Exum would likely start again if he plays and Williams doesn’t, though Spencer Dinwiddie would be next in line if both guards are ruled out.

Williams had an excellent three-game stretch for Dallas, averaging 19.3 points, five rebounds, 6.3 assists, two steals and 1.7 three-pointers per game. Unfortunately, he exited early from the third game with a hamstring issue that forced him to sit out on Monday. Dante Exum is questionable on Wednesday due to his own hamstring strain after starting in place of Williams on Monday. Spencer Dinwiddie would be the next man up if both guards are forced to sit out.

Washington has missed the Mavs’ last five games, but an upgrade to questionable is a step in the right direction. He will certainly return to the starting lineup when he is cleared to play, and if that happens on Wednesday, Kessler Edwards or Naji Marshall will likely be pushed to the bench.

Valanciunas held his own on the glass again, grabbing a game-high 13 rebounds on Monday. The veteran center has hit double digits in that category in four straight and five of his last six appearances. The increased rebounding production is why Valanciunas has been a top-25 player in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. He’s already rostered in 85 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and JV will continue to have increased value while the Kings are without Domantas Sabonis.
SAC • Guard • #8

LaVine only attempted 10 shots on Monday, his lowest tally since joining the Kings a few days before the February trade deadline. While the percentages were good, he wasn’t particularly impactful in the Kings’ 133-104 defeat. However, LaVine has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. The only negative for LaVine managers is Sacramento’s schedule, as they end Week 19 with a Thursday/Friday back-to-back against the Warriors and Suns.

Monk returned from a three-game absence on Monday and was not under any restrictions. However, there was a quick trip to the locker room during the second half, and the Kings getting blown out ensured Monk a few more minutes on the bench than planned. Monday’s game was his first with 20 points or more since before the All-Star break, and Monk’s scoring has taken a hit since the De’Aaron Fox trade. After averaging 18.0 points per game before February 1, he’s recorded 16.7 since the trade. With the Kings fighting to reach the postseason, they’ll need Monk to be more impactful as a scorer.
DAL • F • #13

Marshall has been in the starting lineup for the Mavs’ last four games, and he has been fantastic in that role. He scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half on Monday to extend his streak of 20-point games to four. During that stretch, he has averaged 27 points, 10.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.8 three-pointers per game while shooting 51.9 percent from the floor. Rostered in 51 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he should be added where he is still available.
DAL • G • #31

Thompson scored 17 of his 26 points in the second half, which allowed him to score at least 25 points for the third time in his last four appearances. More importantly, it was enough to help Dallas end their five-game losing streak. Thompson hasn’t shot the ball as efficiently as he did in this game, but he has stepped up on offense since Kyrie Irving (knee) went down for the year. He’ll look to stay hot over their final three games of the week, though they only play twice next week, which will limit his fantasy impact.
DAL • F • #20
9 months ago
Edwards has been a consistent starter for about a month, but this type of production is something that he hasn’t ever done. He set a new career-high for both points and rebounds on Monday and recorded the second double-double of his career, with the other one coming during his rookie year back in 2021. Edwards has been a solid role player for multiple teams since being drafted in the second round, but that hasn’t let to much fantasy production. However, he has provided top-50 value over the past week. It’s a small sample size, but with how many injuries Dallas is dealing with, he is worth considering as a streamer.
DAL • G • #26

Though Dinwiddie didn’t move into the starting lineup with Brandon Williams (hamstring) sidelined, he was still able to have a fantastic night off the bench. He led Dallas in scoring and was one of four players to score at least 20 points for them. He fell short of his season-high for points, but he did have his highest-scoring game since January. Dinwiddie hasn’t been great since Kyrie Irving went down, but he was awesome on Monday. He’ll look to keep it going in their rematch with San Antonio on Wednesday.

Monk returns to the Kings’ lineup after missing three games with a toe injury. Keon Ellis will head to the bench, and while he will remain in the rotation, his fantasy ceiling is considerably lower in this role. The other four starters remain unchanged as Valanciunas continues filling in for the injured Domantas Sabonis.

LaRavia is on the Kings’ injury report after logging 31 minutes in Sunday’s overtime loss to the Clippers.

Monk will be back in the lineup after missing Sacramento’s last three games. Keon Ellis started in his place for those games and averaged 9.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, three assists, 2.3 steals, one block and 1.7 three-pointers per game. Ellis’ fantasy upside will be limited in a likely return to the bench.

Powell only played six minutes on Sunday, as a third-quarter collision with teammate Kessler Edwards ended his day. Powell received seven stitches to close a gash on his forehead and did not return. While Edwards suffered a cut over his left eye, he was able to return to Sunday’s game during the fourth quarter. Dallas finished Sunday’s loss with seven available players and may have similar issues for Monday’s game against the Spurs, as Dante Exum and Caleb Martin are under minutes restrictions due to their recent injuries.

Valanciunas had a difficult night shooting the basketball, but there was still some value in his stat line. The 17 rebounds are the most he’s had in a game since his final appearance for the Wizards on February 3, and the veteran center has hit double figures in that category in four of his last five. Add the seven assists, and all wasn’t lost for those who have Valanciunas. Rostered in 84 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he should be held in most leagues until Domantas Sabonis returns from his hamstring injury.

While Murray’s offensive output has been modest on most nights, he has hit double figures in seven of the eight games he’s appeared in since the All-Star break. The combination of consistent scoring and solid percentages is why Murray has been ranked just outside the top 50 in nine-cat formats since the break. Even with Domantas Sabonis and Malik Monk out due to injury, Murray’s fantasy ceiling is limited, with DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine dominating the shots. However, he can still provide solid value, as evidenced by his production since the All-Star break.
SAC • Guard-Forward • #10

DeRozan hit multiple key shots down the stretch on Sunday. Unfortunately for the Kings he didn’t have the ball in his hands last. Kawhi Leonard did, and his left-handed shot as time expired gave the Clippers the win. DeRozan has scored 30 points or more on 11 occasions this season, three shy of his 2023-24 total, continuing to provide reliable fantasy value in eight- and nine-cat formats. The good news for managers whose playoffs begin during Week 20 is that the Kings play 12 games during Weeks 20-22. As for Week 19, Sacramento plays three, starting with the Knicks on Monday.
SAC • Guard • #8

LaVine has scored 20 points or more in six straight games and at least 30 in two straight. On Sunday, he scored an efficient 30 points, shooting over 50 percent from the field. And Sunday’s performance could have been even better for LaVine, who was just 1-of-7 from beyond the arc. Since the All-Star break, LaVine has been close to a top-25 player in eight-cat formats, shooting nearly 58 percent from the field. LaVine has fit in well with his new teammates, to the delight of those who have him rostered.

Sunday’s game was the first for Martin since January 10 as a member of the 76ers. He was injured well before he was traded to the Mavericks, so the versatile wing was on a minutes restriction against the Suns. While capable of providing value when playing regular minutes, especially for a team as shorthanded as the Mavericks currently are, the question for Martin is when he will be able to take on a full workload.

While there was some concern regarding Thompson’s offense in the aftermath of Kyrie Irving’s season-ending knee injury, the veteran guard has stepped up. After hitting six three-pointers and scoring 28 on Wednesday, Thompson dropped another 26 against the Suns. The combination of Dallas’ many injuries and the team remaining in the final play-in spot may keep Thompson on the court. However, this is something to track during the fantasy playoff weeks.

Dallas began Sunday’s game with nine available players and ended it with seven. That’s how bad things have gotten for the Mavericks injury-wise, but the absences have opened the door for Marshall to shine. He finished Sunday’s defeat with a career-high point total and one rebound shy of a triple-double. Rostered in 39 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Marshall is in “must-roster” territory in standard leagues. The Mavericks play four games during Week 19, starting with the Spurs on Monday and Wednesday.

Rewarded with a place in the starting lineup after scoring 31 points against the Grizzlies on Friday, Williams will not return to Sunday’s game due to left hamstring tightness. The Mavericks are in action again on Monday, so Williams’ absence would likely mean a return to the starting lineup for Spencer Dinwiddie. While he offers limited fantasy value, Dinwiddie is worth rostering due to Dallas’ lack of healthy bodies.

Williams is getting a spot start over Dante Exum and Spencer Dinwiddie on Sunday after scoring 31 points off the bench in his latest outing. He could be worth streaming if Dallas goes into full-on tank mode, but fantasy managers should make him string together a few more solid performances before spending their free-agency budget on the idea that the 31-point game is the new normal.

Valanciunas has now had at least 14 points and at least nine rebounds in four straight games. The 32-year-old center continues to produce at a high level while Domantas Sabonis is out.

DeRozan was just one rebound and three assists away from a triple-double. The 35-year-old small forward is seeing increased usage with Domantas Sabonis (hamstring) out.

LaVine has been on an absolute scoring tear recently and it continued against the Spurs on Friday. While the Kings gave up De’Aaron Fox in a multi-team trade before the trade deadline, they acquired LaVine in the deal. The 29-year-old shooting guard outscored Fox 36 to 16 in the Kings’ 18-point victory. LaVine has shot over 50 percent from the field in seven of 13 games since being acquired by Sacramento. It would hardly be surprising if LaVine is a top-50 or better fantasy option over the rest of the season.

Williams hadn’t played at least 30 minutes in a game all season until the last two games when he played 34 minutes both times. The 25-year-old point guard has stepped up with the Mavericks dealing with a litany of injuries. Williams has had at least six assists in both games so it seems like he could consistently provide assists if the playing time continues. The 31 points are more difficult to buy into given he hadn’t even scored 20 points in a game entering play Friday.

Marshall has now played at least 30 minutes in five straight games. The 27-year-old small forward is really coming on in the last two games as he’s had at least 20 points and at least 10 rebounds in both games.

Jonas Valanciunas is the player to add if he’s available on your league’s waiver wire; he was productive in 30 minutes against the Rockets and has been solid all season.
