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.

Coulibaly has missed Washington’s last four games, but there is a chance he returns to take on Brooklyn. Tre Johnson has been starting since Coulibaly went down, and he could be pushed back to a reserve role if Coulibaly returns, though Khris Middleton is also a candidate to come off the bench. There is also a chance Coulibaly doesn’t start, though that hasn’t happened since he was a rookie.

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.

Lively II will return following a nine-game absence, and he should immediately split work with Daniel Gafford at center. With both Lively II and Gafford available, Moussa Cisse and Dwight Powell will likely see minimal playing time.

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. Washington and Dereck Lively II are also questionable, and the status of all three players will have a dramatic impact on the Mavs’ frontcourt rotation.

Washington exited early on Wednesday, and Mavericks coach Jason Kidd said that he is still being evaluated. If he is sidelined against the Clippers, Naji Marshall, who started the second half on Wednesday, would be in line for a start, which would raise his fantasy ceiling dramatically.

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.

While George didn’t produce the best field-goal percentage on Wednesday, fantasy managers will undoubtedly take the rebounds, assists and steals. The nine assists were a career-high for the second-year wing, who is ranked just outside the top-50 in eight-cat formats. While some pinpointed George as a potential breakout candidate during the offseason, few expected him to be as valuable as he’s been thus far.

Sarr finished Wednesday’s defeat with his second consecutive double-double and fourth of the season. The second-year center has also scored 20 points or more in five games, as he continues to exceed the expectations of most fantasy managers. Sarr is providing second-round value in eight-cat formats, well ahead of his Yahoo! ADP (83). About the only thing that would derail Sarr at this point would be an injury. With the Wizards rebuilding, his playing time will be secure for the entire season.

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.

Lively will miss a ninth straight game on Wednesday, and with Anthony Davis also out, the Mavericks will rely on Daniel Gafford and Moussa Cissé at the center position.

Lively has missed the last eight games with a sprained right knee, leaving Daniel Gafford as the starting center. The player who would take the most significant hit if Lively returns is Moussa Cissé, who has played rotation minutes in four of the Mavericks’ last five games.

Davis is once again listed as questionable ahead of a game. However, he’s missed the last six games, making it difficult to determine how close Davis is to playing.

Wednesday’s game will be the fourth that Coulibaly has missed with a left calf contusion. Rookie Tre Johnson has been the replacement in the starting lineup, and he’s worth a look in deep leagues.

Gafford was a game-time decision as he was dealing with an ankle injury. While he ultimately played 23 minutes with the Mavericks shorthanded in the frontcourt, he had a subpar offensive game with seven points on eight shots. Anthony Davis and Dereck Lively II’s next chance to play for the Mavericks will come Wednesday against the Suns.

Flagg’s 26 points were the most he’s had in a game so far in his young career. It’s the third time he’s had at least 20 points in 11 games this year. Flagg grabbed nine rebounds for the second time in his last four games. The 18-year-old rookie still hasn’t had a monster game, but has been a consistent scored and rebounder. The Mavericks have three more games this week, starting with the Suns on Wednesday.

The 34-year-old shooting guard has made at least five three-pointers in two of his last three games.

The Mavericks have been one of the worst offensive teams in the NBA this season, prompting another change to the starting lineup. Williams will make his first start of the season, which immediately raises his fantasy ceiling.

No surprise here as Lively was listed as doubtful. The 21-year-old center remains out with a sprained right knee, though he is getting closer to a return to the court. With Lively and Anthony Davis out, the Mavericks have to hope Daniel Gafford, who is a game-time decision, is ultimately active.

Davis, who was initially questionable for Monday’s game, will miss a sixth straight contest with a strained left calf. With Dereck Lively II also out and Daniel Gafford being a game-time decision, the Mavericks may be forced to rely on Moussa Cissé in the post.

Lively has missed Dallas’s last five games with a knee injury, and it appears likely that he’ll miss a sixth on Monday. How impactful his absence will be depends on Daniel Gafford’s availability, who’s questionable with a sprained ankle.

Despite exiting Friday’s game against the Grizzlies early due to a sprained right ankle, Gafford started and played 19 minutes on Saturday.

Cissé played 19 minutes and contributed nine rebounds and three blocked shots on Saturday.

Davis, who was also questionable ahead of Saturday’s win over the Wizards, has not appeared in a game since October 29. If he’s able to play on Monday, Max Christie or P.J.

Sarr came up big for Washington in this game and was able to turn in a strong line across the board. Overall this season, his rebounding has been improved, but the last two games have been rough in that department; he matched his season-low for boards in this one. Still, this has been an excellent start to Sarr’s second season in the league, and he’ll look to keep it going in Detroit on Monday.

Since scoring 14 points in the season opener, Whitmore has only scored in double figures once and hasn’t played a significant role. However, he was able to contribute off the bench in this game and set a new season-high for points. Still, outside of the buckets, he only contributed three boards. That’s it. Whitmore is a talented scorer, but until he is able to contribute in other areas, his upside and minutes will both be limited.

It was a tale of two halves for McCollum. He got off to a scorching hot start to this game, scoring 23 points in the first half alone. That came after he had a season-high 25 points on Friday. He only scored two points after the break, and he wasn’t able to help the Wizards end their losing streak. Still, this two-game stretch was great to see from McCollum after he scored a total of eight points over the two previous games.

D’Angelo Russell got the start at point guard for Dallas, but Williams ended up playing more minutes and was more productive in the box score. Mavericks coach Jason Kidd has been mixing up the starting lineup recently to try and find a combination that works with Anthony Davis (calf) unavailable. Williams could have earned more minutes with this performance, but until he’s doing it consistently, or gets the chance to start, he should be left on the waiver wire.

For the third time in his last four games, Washington was able to record a double-double. During this stretch, he is averaging 18 points, 9.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks per game. He hasn’t shot efficiently, but the counting stats have been there, which has been helpful with Anthony Davis (calf) sidelined.

Unsurprisingly, Sarr struggled on the glass against Cleveland’s tandem of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. However, the second-year center shot over 50 percent from the field and recorded four blocks, continuing to make strides on both ends of the floor. Sarr’s start to the season has been very encouraging, but there’s still room for improvement. Can he be a top-50 fantasy player for the entire season? Yes. But, for those who don’t believe in Sarr that much, now would be a good time to see what selling high can fetch on the trade market.

Having shot 3-of-19 from the field and 1-of-10 from three in his two previous games, McCollum was looking to snap out of that funk. Mission accomplished, as he shot 50 percent from the field and led the Wizards in scoring. Thirteen of his 16 shot attempts were from beyond the arc, and he has a three-point attempt rate of nearly 55 percent through nine games. When the shots are falling at a solid clip, as they were on Friday, that’s a nice deal for those who have McCollum rostered.

With Bilal Coulibaly unavailable due to injury, Johnson made his first career start on Friday. While he certainly would have preferred to do so in a win, the rookie guard had a good night on the offensive end of the floor. Johnson provided solid value in points, three-pointers and field-goal percentage, although he was just 1-of-3 from the foul line. Johnson’s value at this point in the season hinges on the availability of players like Coulibaly, but the rookie certainly has the potential to be a “silly season” standout.

While it’s still early in the 2025-26 season, Sarr’s progress from Year 1 to Year 2 has been impressive. He was one of the few bright spots in Wednesday’s blowout loss, continuing an excellent run to begin the season. Sarr is providing top-25 value in nine-cat formats thus far, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a fantasy manager who expected this level of production. While some may be tempted to sell high, his role is such that Sarr can still provide excellent value, and he won’t be a shutdown risk on this rebuilding team.

Coulibaly has provided top-100 value in nine-cat formats through three games, exceeding his Yahoo! ADP of 143. Whether he can sustain this production level will depend on Coulibaly’s field-goal shooting. He’s making 42.7 percent of his attempts thus far, including a 3-of-10 night against the Magic on Saturday. Coulibaly’s rostered percentage has more than doubled since his season debut on October 30, and it may increase even more with the Wizards playing three more games during Week 3.
