Davis is expected to remain out for at least one more game, but he was able to practice on Thursday, so he’s getting closer to a return. Max Christie has been starting since Davis went down, and he has played well. He’ll remain in that role at least one more game, though he has made a case to continue to start even after Davis returns.

Memphis was finally healthy entering this game, but that didn’t last long. Morant’s early exit should lead to extra minutes for Vince Williams Jr. and Cam Spencer. Hopefully this won’t be a long-term absence, but Williams would likely be worth streaming if it is; he started when Morant missed Wednesday’s game against Boston.

Prosper played a large role in the Grizzlies’ last game, which was a blowout loss. Prior to that, he hadn’t been part of the rotation. His absence in this game may provide a few extra minutes for GG Jackson and Vince Williams Jr.

Coward was upgraded to questionable earlier in the day after initially being tagged as doubtful. He’ll not only suit up, but he’ll make the first start of his career, which will push Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to the bench. Edey is also starting in his first appearance this season, which will push Jock Landale to a reserve role.

Edey will be available to play for the first time this season, and it has already been announced that he will start. He may have his minutes managed in his first game back, but he’ll be part of the opening group, which likely means Jock Landale will be pushed to a reserve role.

Small initially suffered a turf toe injury in his left foot in a November 8 G League game between the Memphis Hustle and Mexico City Capitanes and has not played since. His absence does not impact fantasy basketball, especially with starting point guard Ja Morant being healthy. Cam Spencer and Vince Williams Jr. have shared the backup responsibilities, and that will remain the case until Ty Jerome returns from injury.

Coward was initially doubtful for Saturday’s game with a sore right foot. With his status upgraded to questionable, the rookie’s chances of playing have increased. Vince Williams Jr. and GG Jackson are the players who stand to benefit if Coward doesn’t play, but neither is worth streaming while in a reserve role.

Marshall can have big games when the Mavericks are missing starters as we saw last year. It was the same story on Friday against the Clippers as the 27-year-old forward filled in for P.J. Washington (shoulder). Marshall played 47 minutes and had 28 points and eight rebounds in the double overtime loss to the Clippers. He’ll have streaming value until Washington gets back.

Russell played 39 minutes, which is the most he’s played in a game this year, in the Mavericks’ double overtime loss to the Clippers on Friday. The 29-year-old point guard’s 28-point performance seeming came out of nowhere. Russell hadn’t scored more than 10 points in his last six games and his three-point shooting has been terrible recently. He’s 2-for-21 from behind the three-point line over his last four games including Friday night. Not much has changed for Russell despite the big minutes and point totals in a double overtime game. He also had seven turnovers to go with five assists.

No surprise here as Davis is set to miss his eighth consecutive game with a calf injury. The 32-year-old power forward is progressing in his recovery and participated in on-court work on Thursday, signaling that a return isn’t far off. The Mavericks are in a tough spot in the frontcourt with Davis and P.J. Washington (shoulder) out and Dereck Lively II on a minutes limit.

Washington exited early on Wednesday, and that shoulder injury will keep him sidelined at least one more game. Naji Marshall should slide into the starting unit, making him a valuable streaming option as long as Washington is sidelined.

AD is questionable to play against the Clippers on Friday, but even if he doesn’t return for that game, he is getting closer. He has missed seven games in a row and could miss an eighth. P.J.

Lively participated in on-court work on Thursday and is “progressing”, according to head coach Jason Kidd. Lively has missed the Mavs’ last nine games and is in danger of missing a 10th. Daniel Gafford has been the starting center recently, but if Lively returns, both the pair will split the minutes at center, which won’t leave much time for Moussa Cisse or Dwight Powell.

Flagg had a well-rounded performance against the Suns. He found production on the glass and made plays for others through his passing, while tallying five stocks on the defensive end. His scoring was also notable, despite his struggles from the field. Regardless, he showed how versatile he can be on both ends of the floor, and continues to be one of the Mavericks’ bright spots in what’s been a rough start to the season.

Gafford had one of his more productive games of the season against the Suns, logging a season-high in rebounds while tying a season-high in points. He contributed on the defensive end with a few stocks and registered an efficient shooting performance after having shot 2-of-8 from the floor on Monday. While his final stats on Wednesday weren’t jaw-dropping, it had to feel good for Gafford to have a productive line after struggling in the three prior games.

Thompson took 16 three-pointers on Wednesday, which made up all but one of his total shot attempts. He didn’t shoot efficiently, but his high volume led him to a season-high in makes, allowing him to finish as the Mavericks’ leading scorer for the game. It’s been a rough start to the season for Thompson, but seeing some shots go in on Wednesday might be what he needs to get back on track.

Williams replaced Ja Morant in the starting lineup on Wednesday and had an up-and-down performance in his 25 minutes. He did well on the glass and flashed some facilitating skills, but shot inefficiently from beyond the arc during the blowout loss. If Morant can’t go on Saturday against the Cavaliers, Williams is likely to remain in the starting lineup. Regardless, he’ll have a chance to improve on Wednesday’s performance.

Aldama was one of the most productive Grizzlies against the Celtics on Wednesday. He finished second on the team in scoring, tied for the most rebounds and assists, and used active hands on the defensive end to collect three stocks. Inefficient shooting prevented Aldama from having an even more productive performance. Still, he finished with a solid line in the loss.

Jackson Jr. played just 23 minutes on Wednesday, thanks to the score being one-sided, in favor of the Celtics. He led the Grizzlies in scoring and led the team in field-goal attempts along the way. He added a couple stocks on the defensive end but otherwise found very little production elsewhere. Jackson has scored 17 or more points in six of seven games during November.

Washington left in the first quarter of Wednesday’s contest with a shoulder injury before eventually being ruled out for the remainder of the game. The veteran forward had scored six points in five minutes of action on 3-of-5 shooting. Washington had served as a full-time starter and was averaging 15.5 points and 8.3 rebounds heading to the matchup with Phoenix. His injury is just the latest in what’s been a season full of injuries already for the Mavericks.

Caldwell-Pope’s night has ended prematurely due to a sore right elbow. He played 19 minutes, going scoreless (0-of-3 FGs) with three rebounds, three assists and one steal. KCP’s absence should result in more playing time for rookie Cedric Coward, who has been Memphis’ best performer this season in terms of fantasy value. He’ll be an even more popular fantasy add if Caldwell-Pope misses time.

Memphis will not have Ja Morant for Wednesday’s game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. Williams will replace him, although Cam Spencer should also play plenty.

Morant is dealing with right ankle soreness. The 26-year-old point guard’s status is truly up in the air given his questionable listing.

Coward struggled from deep in his first trip to Madison Square Garden, shooting 0-of-5 from beyond the arc. However, the rookie guard provided solid value in assists, steals and blocked shots. Coward’s ability to fill a stat line has made him one of the more valuable rookies in fantasy basketball, as he’s providing top-50 value in nine-cat formats and top-75 value in eight-cat. Rostered in 38 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Coward deserves more consideration, even with the Grizzlies only playing twice more during Week 4.

The Grizzlies accumulated 22 turnovers on the night, with Williams being responsible for five.

While Morant finished Tuesday’s loss with his third double-double of the season, he had a brutal first half. The Grizzlies’ point guard racked up three assists and seven turnovers before halftime, at times looking like he’d rather be anywhere else than Madison Square Garden. Morant was better in the second half, and Memphis was able to pull to within 10 points before New York shut the door. Given his reported frustrations, Morant’s situation is one to watch as Memphis navigates multiple injuries.

The Grizzlies have lost six of their last seven games, but Jackson’s production has been relatively consistent. He’s scored at least 17 points in three straight and five of his last six games. The issue for Jackson has been foul trouble, with the Grizzlies forward picking up his third disqualification of the season on Tuesday. With Ja Morant’s inconsistent effort and production, the Grizzlies need even more from Jackson. And fantasy managers would also benefit from improved production.

Like many of his teammates, Coward struggled inside the arc on Sunday, shooting 1-of-6. However, he made half of his six three-point attempts and was active on the boards, recording his second double-double. Rostered in 36 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Coward is providing top-50 value in nine-cat formats. The negative in the short term is that Memphis’ three-game Week 4 starts with a Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back, which may limit Coward’s value. However, he should have staying power in fantasy basketball throughout the season.

Add in the foul trouble, and this was a rough night for Morant and those who have him rostered.

He hasn’t shot efficiently, but the counting stats have been there, which has been helpful with Anthony Davis (calf) sidelined. Washington should continue to be a solid producer, but if AD is back to take on the Bucks on Monday, Washington’s value will take a hit.
