The Mavericks wait for their daily ritual of banging their head against the wall when they find out who is and isn’t available to play.
What we know is that Dončić (left calf strain), Dereck Lively II (right ankle sprain) and Dante Exum (right wrist surgery) are out. We’ll find out who might be available from this group when the daily injury update comes out: Jaden Hardy (ankle), Naji Marshall (illness), Klay Thompson (ankle) and Dwight Powell (hip).

The Mavs won the previous meeting on Jan 17, '25, 106-98.

He's going to be evaluated in 2 days, early optimistic signs are just before all star break. Next week would be super early unless they are hiding something.

And knowing our luck when Luka's back two other guys will get hurt

Prosper and Edwards should have been getting Maxi minutes.We have these young athletic guys and we need to use them. Especially Prosper.

Anyone else think the Gafford injury looked fake? ***trigger alert***
Or should we focus on how great Prosper is playing? If Prosper is traded this year my instincts are probably right.
Note: I was wrong.

Basically, the young guys played and we played defense...Spencer had a h3ll of a game and a great dunk. I got a lot of respect for Spencer.

You all can keep talking shat about Spencer when he has a shatty game. But at least give credit where credit is due. He had a great performance tonight. Against number one defense and top team in the league. On the road too.
Spencer should be kept, especially for the price he is paid.
On the other hands, tonight is the proof that Klay is not missed or needed from this team.
Has Klay had great leading performance that gave us wins? Every time he played good, we lost as far as I remember.

Key elememts of The American Dream are home ownership and business ownership, I'm glad for PJ owning a house at paycom center and Sports franchise in the Thunder of Oklahoma City.

After 10 trash games here we are ... Good game by Dinwiddie... So he can cost us the next 10
But i see people will never understand.
Kidd is on a very hot seat if he tried some young guns. Funny.
Great W. No tank. It's just stupid.

About the game
We played better than last games, we moved the ball, no Dinwiddie 20seconds pump or other bullshits.
Just Luka and Kai can take step back 3s or play heavy ISOs. Only them. Please.
On the defensive end i've seen something finally... A Little bit zone, some blitz or doubled.
Nothing special of course (Kidd is Kidd) but at least we tried something new and make your opponents think is always good.
SGA took a lot of bad shoots and lost some balls for example.
PJ played with hustle but he missed a lot of shoots and made some dumb mistakes. He has to improve.
Kai is still the leader.
Dinwiddie is ok if he plays under control. But i don't rely too much on him, next 10 games he will sucks probably.
O-Max great.
Edwards ok but he passed a lot of Wide open 3s.
Kleber is Kleber.
Williams is short and not much talented but he can play basketball. Real PG.
Gafford and Grimes solid.
Morris? Please don't play him.
