Won't play Monday Hardy (ankle) is out for Monday's game against the Hornets.

Impact Hardy suffered an ankle injury Friday against the Thunder, and that injury will prevent the third-year guard from suiting up Monday. His next chance to play will come against the Timberwolves.

Done for night due to ankle Hardy won't return to Friday's game against the Thunder due to a right ankle sprain.

Impact Hardy collided with Isaiah Joe after stepping onto the court for just a single minute. He had a pretty significant limp afterwards and the Mavericks were quick to rule him out. For now, he should be considered questionable for Monday's game against Charlotte.

Provides spark off bench Hardy racked up 21 points (7-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 119-116 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact Hardy was Dallas' second-leading scorer during Wednesday's loss despite coming off the bench. The 22-year-old guard is averaging 13.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 21.7 minutes across his last 10 appearances. Hardy has also displayed impressive efficiency over that span, shooting 48.5 percent from the field and 52.1 on 4.8 three-point attempts per contest.

Logs season-high 25 points Hardy supplied 25 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Thursday's 117-111 victory over Portland.

Impact Hardy took advantage of Kyrie Irving's (back) absence and posted his best total of the season off the bench. Klay Thompson got off to a cold start, allowing Hardy to step in alongside Spencer Dinwiddie. Hardy didn't meet expectations initially as the roster grew thin, but his performance on Thursday proved his ability to make an impact when he is called upon. He's now logged five consecutive games of double-digit scoring.

Hits for 17 off bench Hardy supplied 17 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block in 25 minutes off the bench during Friday's 134-122 loss to Cleveland.

Impact It was the third-year guard's best scoring effort since he delivered a season-high 23 points in a spot start against the Hawks on Nov. 25. Hardy has played more than 20 minutes in three straight games as Dallas adjusts to the absence of Luka Doncic (calf) while also having Kyrie Irving (illness) spot in and out of the lineup, but it will likely require both star guards being unavailable again for the 2022 second-round pick to be much more than a DFS punt play for fantasy purposes.

Back to bench Wednesday Hardy is not in the Mavericks' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockets, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Hardy made his third start of the regular season against the Kings on Monday, and he finished with eight points, three rebounds and two blocks across 21 minutes. He'll revert to a reserve role Wednesday due to the return of Kyrie Irving.

JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Tepid result as fill-in Hardy totaled eight points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and two blocks over 21 minutes during Monday's 110-100 loss to the Kings.

Impact Hardy filled in for Kyrie Irving (shoulder) during Monday's loss, but he didn't accomplish much over 21 minutes of play. Ideally, Quentin Grimes would be the sensible replacement for Irving more often, but Klay Thompson's (illness) absence forced Grimes to provide support elsewhere. While Hardy has occasional flashes of production and will see more time during the injury scenario, he doesn't warrant fantasy consideration at this time.

Entering starting lineup Hardy is starting Monday's game against the Kings, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Hardy will enter the starting five as the Mavs will be without Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Klay Thompson (illness) Monday evening. Hardy's last start dates back to Dec. 1 against Portland, finishing with 13 points, three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 23 minutes.

DECEMBER 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gets garbage-time run Friday Hardy (ankle) scored zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and recorded no other statistics while playing the final 52 seconds of Friday's 98-89 win over the Suns.

Impact Hardy had missed six straight games with a right ankle sprain before being cleared to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves. He was left out of the rotation for Dallas' 105-99 loss to Minnesota, but Hardy looked to be a candidate to get some minutes Friday with Luka Doncic having been ruled out for at least the next month. However, even with Doncic sidelined Friday and with Naji Marshall and PJ Washington getting ejected midway through the third quarter, the Mavericks didn't turn to Hardy until the last minute of the contest. Hardy thus looks like he'll continue to remain outside of the rotation while Spencer Dinwiddie and Quentin Grimes see most of the backup minutes at guard behind backcourt starters Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson.

Suiting up Wednesday Hardy (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Hardy has been upgraded from questionable to available and will suit up for the first time since Dec. 5. Given the lengthy layoff and the fact the Mavericks are close to full strength, it's unclear how large of a role Hardy will have on Christmas Day. Over 21 appearances this season, Hardy has averaged 14.2 minutes per game.

Questionable for Wednesday Hardy (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Impact Hardy has missed the past six games for Dallas, but he's been upgraded to day-to-day. However, he's not a reliable fantasy option while Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving are upright.

Won't play Monday vs. Portland Hardy (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Impact Hardy will be sidelined for a sixth straight game due to a right ankle sprain. He hasn't been able to practice through the injury, so it appears unlikely that he would be able to return against the Timberwolves on Christmas Day.

Remains out Hardy (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Clippers.

Impact Hardy didn't practice Friday, so it's not surprising to see him out for a fifth straight game due to a sprained right ankle.

Still sidelined Hardy (ankle) won't play in Thursday's game against the Clippers, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Hardy will miss a fourth straight game due to a right ankle sprain. Considering the Mavericks will also be without Luka Doncic (heel) on Thursday, Kyrie Irving (shoulder), Spencer Dinwiddie and Jazian Gortman should handle most of the point guard work. Hardy's next chance to play will come Saturday in a rematch with the Clippers.

DECEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Tuesday Hardy (ankle) will miss Tuesday's game against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Doubtful for Saturday Hardy is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Raptors due to a right ankle sprain, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.comreports.

Impact The doubtful tag suggests Hardy's chances of playing Saturday aren't very high. However, with Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving available and ready to go, Hardy wasn't expected to see heavy minutes off the bench. When deployed off the bench, Hardy is logging just 13.2 minutes per game across 20 appearances.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
