After going on a streak of five consecutive games with a steal, Christie did not record any in the four games he played before Sunday. The Mavericks’ guard picked up two against the Thunder, and his ability to consistently provide value in that category will be critical for his fantasy outlook moving forward. While a capable shooter, Christie is not a prolific scorer, so category league managers certainly need a bit more from him in the “other” categories. In addition to the two steals, he grabbed seven rebounds, the third time he’s hit that number in a game since New Year’s Day.

While Christie had a solid night shooting the basketball, the overall production was modest. Making matters worse were the five turnovers, which were the most in a game for the Mavericks’ guard this season. Fantasy managers should not be too concerned, however, as Christie had no more than three in a game before Friday. He’ll look to bounce back on Sunday when the Mavericks host the Thunder.

Having missed Friday’s loss to the Timberwolves, Christie returned to the starting lineup on Sunday and logged 31 minutes. The percentages, assists and three-pointers were a solid capper to his Week 17, and the good news for Christie managers is that Dallas plays four games in Week 18. Tuesday’s matchup with the Nets could be another positive one for the guard, who’s scored at least 16 points in four of his last five appearances.

Christie is back after missing Friday’s loss to the Timberwolves and will be in the starting lineup. However, it will be Tyus Jones who heads to the bench, likely shifting more playmaking responsibilities onto Naji Marshall. That’s a positive development for those who have him rostered.

Christie is back after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Timberwolves. His return will likely push Naji Marshall to the bench. While his fantasy value does take a hit with the demotion, Marshall should play enough to make him worth holding onto in 14-team formats.

Christie did not play in Friday’s loss to the Timberwolves, which prompted Naji Marshall to move into the starting lineup. While Marshall’s fantasy value will take a hit if Christie returns, he is still worth holding onto in deeper leagues.

After previously going from questionable to doubtful, Christie will now officially miss Friday’s game against the Timberwolves, marking his fifth missed game of the season. The sharpshooting wing has started the majority of his 50 appearances this year, but in his absence, Klay Thompson and Tyus Jones could be candidates to replace him in the starting unit. Christie is averaging 13.3 points and 2.5 three-pointers per game.

Christie has taken on a significant role in Dallas’ rotation, and his looming absence should free up additional playing time for Klay Thompson and Khris Middleton.

Christie showed up on Thursday’s injury report, despite having played 30 minutes in the Mavericks’ most recent game before the All-Star break. Having scored in double figures in six of his last seven appearances, he’s become a reliable scoring option for the new-look Mavericks. If he’s unable to play, Tyus Jones, Klay Thompson, and Khris Middleton could see more time than usual.

Christie led three Mavericks starters in double figures, and he’s scored at least ten points in five consecutive games. The issue for him recently, even with the double-digit points streak, has been that Christie has made just 38.4 percent of his shots from the field over the past two weeks. Given the limited assists and defensive stats, Christie has limited upside in category leagues.

Since scoring 24 points in a January 24 loss to the Lakers, Christie scored 13 points or less in four consecutive games. The Mavericks’ guard was better against the Spurs, but a 2-of-8 night from beyond the arc kept the points tally at 20. Even with the addition of Khris Middleton, those who have Christie rostered should not panic. With an eye toward the future, the Mavericks would be better served playing Max starters’ minutes than lightening his workload the rest of the season.

Christie left Saturday’s loss to the Lakers early with an ankle injury, but after three days to recover, he’ll be available. Christie has been surging as of late, and fantasy managers should expect him to handle his normal workload.

Christie exited Saturday’s loss to the Lakers early in the third quarter after spraining his left ankle, but he was not in the locker room long before returning. If he’s unable to play, the Mavericks would likely give Jaden Hardy rotation minutes after he picked up a DNP-CD on Saturday.

Christie left Saturday’s game during the third quarter but was able to return after a short period in the locker room. The Mavericks’ guard finished with his fourth consecutive 20-point game, and he should be rostered in a higher percentage of Yahoo! leagues. A sixth-round player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, Christie is rostered in 26 percent of Yahoo! leagues. With the Mavericks facing the Bucks on Sunday, now’s a good time to pick him up.

For the first time this season, Christie has scored at least 20 points in three consecutive games. And he’s flipped a switch since the holidays, with five of his six 20-point games occurring after Christmas. With Anthony Davis (hand) out for the foreseeable future, there will continue to be room for Christie to have a greater impact offensively. A top-100 player over the past two weeks, he’s rostered in 21 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and that number is too low.

Christie put on a three-point shooting clinic in the first half of Monday’s game, making six of his seven attempts. The Mavericks guard would end the game with a career-best eight three-pointers and a season-high point total. In fact, Christie has scored at least 20 in consecutive games for the first time this season. With Anthony Davis out, there’s a need for scoring, and that makes Christie worth a look in deeper fantasy formats.

Back in the lineup after a two-game absence, it took Christie a little time to get going. But once he did, the Mavericks’ guard produced one of his better performances this season. Christie finished with his fourth 20-point game of the season and was a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. With Cooper Flagg (ankle) joining Anthony Davis on the sidelines, Christie is worth a roll of the dice in deeper leagues.

Christie is back in the Mavericks’ starting lineup after missing two games with an illness. His return means that Jaden Hardy will come off the bench. While he should remain in the rotation, Hardy’s streaming value takes a significant hit with the lineup change.

Christie will miss a second consecutive game after sitting out Wednesday’s loss to the Nuggets. Jaden Hardy has started the last two games and should remain in the starting lineup, since the Mavericks are without multiple rotation players.

Christie also missed Wednesday’s game against the Nuggets with the same illness. That led to extra minutes for Ryan Nembhard and Klay Thompson, who should both see additional minutes with Cooper Flagg (ankle) also doubtful for this game.

Initially doubtful for Wednesday’s game, Christie is unavailable for the first time since December 23. His absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Klay Thompson and Ryan Nembhard being potential replacements. If there’s a desire to have more shooting on the floor, Thompson should receive the nod as he’s shot the ball well recently.

Christie is expected to miss a game for the first time since before Christmas, which would open up a spot in the starting lineup. Klay Thompson, who has been hot from deep lately, could fill the vacancy in the starting lineup.

Anthony Davis may have been the headliner on Saturday, but he received ample help from Christie. The Mavericks guard has scored at least 18 points in three consecutive games, providing third-round fantasy value over the past week. Christie appears well-positioned to hold onto his starting job for the foreseeable future, which makes him worth a look in 14-team leagues. He’s currently rostered in 12 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

One game removed from scoring a season-high 25 points, Christie pumped in 19 more against the 76ers. While his season-long fantasy value has not been good, the Mavericks’ guard has been close to a top-100 player over the past week. Just as encouraging was Christie remaining in the starting lineup despite Anthony Davis’ return, with Daniel Gafford being bumped to the bench. For that reason, Christie will be worth considering for Dallas’ final game of Week 11 on Saturday.

Having scored 14 points in the first half of Monday’s game, Christie went scoreless in the third quarter, shooting 0-of-2 from the field. The Mavericks guard rebounded nicely in the fourth, scoring 11 points on 4-of-4 shooting to help Dallas claw its way back into the game. The 25 points were a season-high for Christie, who matched his previous high with five three-pointers. While starting gives him a higher fantasy ceiling, that’s likely to change once Anthony Davis is cleared to return from a groin injury.

While Williams played 15 minutes off the bench in Tuesday’s win over the Nuggets, Christie was held out due to an illness. The latter’s return will likely result in fewer minutes for Caleb Martin, who logged 25 on Tuesday. None are worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Christie was initially listed as questionable with an illness, but will miss the game against the Pelicans Monday. The 22-year-old guard has played less than 20 minutes in each of his last two game. Christie’s absence won’t significantly impact fantasy basketball.

Christie most recently played 14 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the 76ers. He’ll likely take on a similar workload on Monday if he’s available, and that doesn’t move the needle in fantasy basketball.
