Max Christie - Hits for 22 in return Christie chipped in 22 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals across 26 minutes during Saturday's 138-120 victory over the Jazz.

Impact After missing the prior two games with an illness, Christie returned to the lineup and was one of three Mavericks to score more than 20 points in the win. The fourth-year guard has scored in double digits in eight straight games as part of the starting five, averaging 17.0 points, 3.5 boards, 2.9 assists and 2.8 threes in 31.0 minutes while shooting 51.1 percent from the floor and 40.7 percent from beyond the arc.

Impact The veteran forward led the Mavericks in scoring even though he didn't pick up a point in the second half.

Brandon Williams - Adds 22 points in victory Williams finished with 22 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Saturday's 138-120 win over the Jazz.

Impact Williams drew another start Saturday with Cooper Flagg (ankle) sidelined and managed to remain locked in on both ends of the court. He's now put up 18 or more points in four of his last five appearances and was more involved than he typically is as a passer. Look for Williams to continue in this elevated role until Flagg is cleared to return.
