D'Angelo Russell News, Rumors, Updates - Dallas Mavericks

Ruled out for Monday Russell (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Russell will miss his second consecutive contest due to an illness, and his next opportunity to play will come Thursday against the Warriors. The veteran guard has appeared in just one game this month, so his absence shouldn't cause any significant waves in the Dallas rotation.

Late scratch with illness Russell (illness) is out for Saturday's game against the Jazz.

Off injury report Russell (illness) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Russell is set to return to action after sitting out Thursday's loss to Philadelphia due to an illness.

Ruled out with illness Russell (illness) won't play in Friday's game against the Nets, Noah Weber of TheSmokingCuban.com reports.

His next chance to suit up arrives Monday in Utah. Russell was already being phased out of Dallas' rotation a bit as of late, though his absence should solidify the playing time of Ryan Nembhard and Brandon Williams at point guard.

With the emergence of Ryan Nembhard, Russell is now buried deeper in the depth chart and will see a decrease in usage moving forward.
