Daniel Gafford - Questionable for Thursday Gafford (ankle) is questionable to play in Thursday's contest against Portland.

Impact Gafford missed Tuesday's matchup with the Lakers due to his left ankle sprain, and he is in danger of missing another if he can't go Thursday. Dereck Lively and Maxi Kleber will likely fill the big man minutes for the Mavericks again if Gafford is ruled out.

Spencer Dinwiddie - Strong showing in Tuesday's start Dinwiddie finished with 19 points (8-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 118-97 win over the Lakers.

Impact With Luka Doncic (calf) and Kyrie Irving (back) both unavailable, Dinwiddie has started five of the last six games, but his production during that stretch has been unpredictable. Over the previous three contests, the veteran guard had scored a total of just 16 points on 6-for-17 shooting (35.3 percent). Dinwiddie should continue seeing increased court time for at least another week or two, and his potential to pop for a ceiling game -- he also dropped 30 points on the Kings on Dec. 30 -- gives him some appeal as a DFS tournament play.

P.J. Washington Jr. - Hits for 22 in Tuesday's win Washington ended Tuesday's 118-97 victory over the Lakers with 22 points (9-14 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds and one steal over 39 minutes.

Impact With both Luka Doncic (calf) and Kyrie Irving (back) in street clothes, Washington has stepped up for the Mavs. During the three games both star guards have missed in January, Washington is averaging 18.0 points, 8.3 boards, 2.0 assists, 2.0 threes and 1.3 steals while seeing his usage skyrocket -- he's averaged 18.0 FG attempts and 6.0 three-point attempts during that stretch, volume well above his norm. irving could be back later this month, but Doncic is expected to be sidelined into February, so the door is open for Washington to continue seeing an elevated role in the short term.

Quentin Grimes - Continues to impress Grimes logged 23 points (8-17 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 118-97 victory over the Lakers.

Impact With Luka Doncic (calf) and Kyrie Irving (shoulder) on the shelf, Grimes has stepped up in a big way for the Mavericks. Over his last six games, Grimes has produced sixth-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 16.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.7 three-pointers on 45.6 percent shooting from the field.

Maxi Kleber - Reverts to second unit Tuesday Kleber is coming off the bench in Tuesday's game against the Lakers.

Impact The Mavericks will opt to deploy a smaller starting lineup Tuesday after going with a big first unit against Memphis' towering frontcort Monday. Spencer Dinwiddie will take Kleber's spot in the first unit against the Lakers. Over 20 games as a reserve in 2024-25, Kleber has averaged 3.1 rebounds, 2.5 points and 0.8 assists in 18.9 minutes, so he's not worthy of much fantasy attention.
