Drops 19 in loss to Lakers Christie finished Thursday's 124-104 loss to the Lakers with 19 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal in 30 minutes.

Massive workload in loss Christie chipped in 20 points (7-15 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Thursday's 135-123 loss to the Spurs.

Impact The Mavericks were short on healthy bodies in the wake of a busy trade deadline, thrusting Christie into huge minutes Thursday. Dallas is eventually going to have more players available, but Christie is worth streaming in most fantasy leagues in the interim. The sharpshooter averaged 17.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 3.1 three-pointers in 32.6 minutes per contest in his last nine games.

Hits three triples in loss Christie supplied 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 32 minutes during Saturday's 111-107 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Christie continues to put up backend standard league value, draining at least three triples for the fifth time in the past seven games. It appears as though he is locked in as a member of the starting lineup, providing him with a relatively safe floor, for anyone seeking points and threes.

Nursing ankle sprain Christie is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Milwaukee due to a left ankle sprain.

Impact Christie may have picked up the injury during the Mavericks' 116-110 loss to the Lakers on Saturday, when he tallied 24 points, three assists, two rebounds and one steal over 35 minutes. Cooper Flagg (ankle) is listed as doubtful, so Jaden Hardy, Ryan Nembhard and D'Angelo Russell would be in line for even larger roles if Christie is unable to play Sunday.

Impact The 24 points led the Mavs on the night, as Christie put together a strong revenge game against the team that traded him last season. The fourth-year guard has topped 20 points in four straight contests since returning from a two-game absence due to an illness, averaging 23.3 points, 5.0 threes, 3.5 boards, 2.8 assists and 1.0 steals over that span.
