Naji Marshall News, Rumors, Updates - Dallas Mavericks

Returns to bench with McCollum back Marshall will come off the bench Tuesday against the Suns, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Impact CJ McCollum is back following a stint in COVID-19 protocols, so Marshall will return to the bench. He could still see a marginally elevated workload since Brandon Ingram (hamstring) is still out.

Excels in first start Marshall racked up 14 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and three steals across 29 minutes during Friday's 142-120 loss to the Hornets.

Impact With CJ McCollum (COVID-19 protocols) and Brandon Ingram (hamstring) both out, Marshall drew his first start of the season. The second-year pro out of Xavier made the most of his opportunity, as he scored in double figures for just the seventh time during the campaign and dished out a season-high seven assists. He also displayed his defensive instincts, registering at least three steals for a third time this season. As long as the aforementioned duo remains sidelined, Marshall should continue to garner plenty of opportunities.

Logs season-high 27 minutes in loss Marshall closed Tuesday's 132-111 loss to the Grizzlies with 16 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 7-10 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 27 minutes.

Impact Marshall was able to make the most of garbage time Tuesday, scoring in double-digits for the third time in his last four games. On the surface, it does appear he is beginning to carve out a somewhat consistent role in the rotation. However, despite the recent scoring surge, his minutes have fluctuated wildly, ranging from nine minutes in the previous game, all the way up to 27 in this one. For now, he should be viewed as a deeper league target.

Gets run for shorthanded Pels Marshall ended Tuesday's 110-97 victory over Houston with 14 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 20 minutes.

Impact With the Pelicans shorthanded due to the trade that sent out, notably, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Josh Hart, Marshall found himself in the rotation. He played well against the struggling Rockets, matching his season-high 14 points and filling out the rest of the stat sheet as well. Once the Pels' new pieces are available, Marshall will presumably return to a role not conducive to fantasy relevance.
