This was not the way Washington wanted to end his season, but he wasn’t alone. Both he and Dereck Lively II were held scoreless in this game despite both playing more than 20 minutes. Washington missed all five of his shot attempts, while Lively missed each of his two shots. Both found other ways to contribute in the box score, but this was an abysmal offensive performance for them. Washington and Lively will both be starters for Dallas again next season, and this one game isn’t enough for managers to be concerned about them next year, especially with Kyrie Irving coming back.

Williams was a bright spot for Dallas in what was mostly an abysmal performance for the team in their play-in loss. After scoring 17 points against the Kings on Wednesday, Williams was once again able to help the Mavs in the scoring department. The 25-year-old point guard only became part of the rotation after multiple injuries in front of him, but he took advantage of the opportunity. His role will be limited with Kyrie Irving healthy to start next season, but Williams is an intriguing player to keep an eye on in dynasty formats.

Thompson’s play-in performance this season was significantly better than it was last season. It wasn’t enough to get the Mavericks to the postseason in his first year with the team, but it was good to see Klay play well. His first season in Dallas likely wasn’t as expected, and his numbers dropped off from his final year with the Warriors. However, he was also expecting to play with Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving in the postseason. Thompson is still one of the best shooters in the league, and Dallas should be more dangerous next season when they are fully healthy. That should help Klay be more productive.

Davis wrapped up the season on a high note individually, though it wasn’t a great performance for the rest of his team. His 40 points were the most he has had in a game since the Lakers traded him in January. Unfortunately, he exited this game with a little over eight minutes remaining and didn’t get to add to his scoring total. The team hasn’t released an official injury update, but he was limping off the floor. He’ll have the offseason to recover, and there is no reason to think he won’t be ready to start the 2025-26 season.

Having suffered an oblique injury during Sunday’s loss to the Grizzlies, Williams was a game-time decision for Wednesday’s Play-In tournament matchup. Not only did he play, but he flourished, giving the Mavericks excellent minutes off the bench. Mavericks coach Jason Kidd went ten deep with his rotation, preferring Williams over Spencer Dinwiddie, who only played the final two minutes, and the approach worked. The Mavericks visit Memphis on Friday, with the winner earning the eighth seed in the West.

Thompson did not enter the Play-In tournament in good form, scoring 13 points on 5-of-16 shooting in his final two regular-season appearances. The veteran sharpshooter found his groove on Wednesday, especially during the second quarter. Shooting 5-of-5 from the field with four three-pointers, Thompson scored 16 points in a quarter the Mavericks won by a 44-19 margin. This version of Thompson is the one the Mavericks will need on Friday, as they visit Memphis with the eighth seed in the West going to the winner.

Irrving tore the ACL in his left knee on March 3, ending his season. He has a player option worth $44 million next season, but Charania reported that the Mavericks would like to tear up that deal to give the point guard a three-year extension this summer. That approach would align Irving with Anthony Davis and GM Nico Harrison regarding the remaining years on their respective contracts. With Spencer Dinwiddie being a free agent this summer, whoever else is in the Mavericks’ point guard rotation may have higher value to begin the season due to Irving’s injury.

The undrafted rookie wrapped up his first season in the NBA on a high note. Battle set new career highs for both points and three-pointers and became the 48th rookie in league history to hit seven triples in one game. He is the fourth rookie this season to reach that mark, with Bub Carrington, Dalton Knecht and Jaylen Wells also doing it. Battle has played well as part of Toronto’s rotation over the past month, but there likely won’t be minutes for him with the Raptors to start next season.

Hardy’s stat line was unsurprising to those familiar with his game. While the absences meant more opportunities for the third-year guard, his inefficiency limits Hardy’s fantasy ceiling.

Dallas rested most of its key rotation players, with Gafford being one of the exceptions. He only played 19 minutes on Sunday, but the stat line was undoubtedly helpful to fantasy managers in active leagues.

He didn’t do enough scoring to reach a triple-double, but Mogbo became the seventh player this season to record a rebound-assist double-double. It was a solid way to end his rookie season and cap off a four-game stretch where he averaged 12.8 points, 10.8 rebounds, nine assists, 2.5 steals and one block per game. The second-round pick has showcased a ton of upside in year one, but it’s unclear how he’ll fit into the rotation next season when the rest of the team is healthy. Still, when he gets the opportunity to play, he should be an effective, well-rounded fantasy option.

He finishes his fourth season in the NBA with averages of 19.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.4 steals, one block and 1.2 threes per game.

Barrett will sit out Sunday’s season finale for rest reasons, while Walter’s absence is due to a tight right hip flexor. Ochai Agbaji and Jamison Battle started Friday’s loss in Dallas and should retain those roles in San Antonio. Barrett has long been a better option in points leagues than category leagues, but he did make some strides in the former this season, providing 12th-round value in eight-cat formats. However, the addition of Brandon Ingram at the trade deadline does not bode well for Barrett’s fantasy prospects in 2025-26. The same can be said for Walter, as injuries limited the first-round pick to 52 appearances as a rookie. While Barrett can be selected with a late-round pick in standard drafts, Walter should be left alone in redraft leagues.

As for Poeltl, the veteran center was a top-50 player in nine-cat formats and ranked just outside that threshold in eight-cat.

Unfortunately, he only added one more block in the second half, and he only played 30 minutes, though that can be attributed to the lopsided score.
