Waived by Charlotte The Hornets waived Dinwiddie on Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Impact The Hornets needed to waive a guaranteed salary ahead of Opening Night to finalize their roster. With Collin Sexton and Tre Mann (hip) putting together strong training camps, Dinwiddie was viewed as expendable by Charlotte. The veteran is likely to receive NBA interest elsewhere.

Logs 19 minutes off bench Dinwiddie ended with six points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four assists and three rebounds in 19 minutes during Saturday's preseason win over Dallas.
Impact Dinwiddie produced very little despite playing meaningful minutes, a sign of what fantasy managers might expect to see during the regular season. While he does provide the Hornets with a viable backup, should LaMelo Ball miss time throughout the season, Dinwiddie's standalone value remains limited. Barring injuries to other players, the veteran is unlikely to factor too much when it comes to tangible production.

Impact After spending the 2024-25 campaign with the Mavericks, Dinwiddie moves on to his sixth NBA team. The veteran guard will provide some depth for Charlotte. The team recently added Collin Sexton and Tre Mann to its backcourt. Dinwiddie averaged 11.0 points, 2.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game last season while shooting 41.6 percent from the floor and 33.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Impact Dinwiddie logged six total minutes across Dallas' two games in the Play-In tournament but didn't tally any stats. In 2024-25, Dinwiddie made 79 regular-season appearances, including 30 starts, and averaged 11.0 points, 4.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds in 27.0 minutes.

Available to play Sunday Dinwiddie (knee) is not on the injury report and will be available to play Sunday against the Grizzlies.
Impact The Mavericks will be resting several veterans for this matchup, such as Anthony Davis (groin) and Klay Thompson (foot), but Dinwiddie will play and should handle a heavy workload in the backcourt as the team's floor general. Dinwiddie heads into the final game of the regular season with averages of 12.4 points, 5.9 assists and 3.3 rebounds per game across 24 outings since the All-Star break.

Downgraded to out Dinwiddie (knee) won't play in Friday's game versus the Raptors.
Impact Dinwiddie has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday due to right knee soreness. Jaden Hardy, Brandon Williams and Dante Exum are all candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Dinwiddie's next chance to suit up is Sunday's regular-season finale against Memphis.

Iffy for Friday Dinwiddie (knee) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors.
Impact Dinwiddie is in danger of missing a game for the first time since Nov. 19, as he's dealing with soreness in his right knee. If the veteran guard cannot play Friday, the Mavericks will likely have to turn to Jaden Hardy (ankle), Brandon Williams and Daunte Exum (hand) in the backcourt.

Muted impact off bench Dinwiddie posted five points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and four assists in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 112-97 loss to the Lakers.
Impact Dinwiddie moved to the bench Wednesday after starting each of his last 10 contests, which led to a significant decrease in his productivity. The veteran guard has averaged 13.4 points, 4.2 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.3 three-pointers in 31.2 minutes over his last nine games off the bench. However, Dinwiddie has averaged 14.3 points, 8.2 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 1.5 three-pointers in 32.9 minutes across his last 11 outings as a starter.

Not starting Wednesday Dinwiddie will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
Impact Dinwiddie's streak of 10 consecutive starts will come to a close Wednesday, as the Mavericks roll out a starting lineup of Klay Thompson, Naji Marshall, P.J. Washington, Anthony Davis and Dereck Lively. Still, with Jaden Hardy (ankle) out and Dallas' lack of point guard alternatives, expect Dinwiddie to see plenty of run. During his 10-start streak, Dinwiddie averaged 14.9 points, 8.4 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals across 33.2 minutes

Logs nine assists in loss Dinwiddie registered eight points (1-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds and nine assists in 33 minutes during Saturday's 135-104 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Although Dinwiddie's assist total was decent, the team desperately needs an enhanced offensive presence from him. Since taking over as the nightly starter, he's eclipsed 20 points only once, and the team is 3-3 when the guard scores less than 15 points. Better lines from the point guard will increase their playoff chances, which are dwindling with every loss.
