Dwight Powell News
Dallas Mavericks center Dwight Powell (eye) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man is set to miss another game while he continues to deal with a left eye issue. Maxi Kleber (toe) is listed as probable, but he should be able to suit up for this game. Kleber figures to take on a majority of the backup center minutes in the absence of Powell. However, Kleber probably won't have strong streaming appeal even with increased playing time.
Dallas Mavericks forward Dwight Powell will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The Mavs have a void to fill with Dereck Lively II (illness) unavailable for this game. The expectation was that Maxi Kleber (toe) would draw the start in this game. However, that won't be the case as Powell gets the nod in the starting five on Wednesday. Instead, Kleber will come off the bench for his first game back from his toe injury. Fantasy managers looking for a possible streaming option might want to consider Powell as a low-end option.
Dallas Mavericks guard Jaden Hardy (ankle) and center Dwight Powell (illness) are now being categorized as probable for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the San Antonio Spurs. Hardy has an ankle sprain stemming from last week's practice while Powell is fighting through an illness, but the two role players sound likely to play in the opener. Hardy's DFS prospects are dependent on Luka Doncic's (calf) status Wednesday, as he remains questionable after practicing earlier this week and participating in Wednesday's shootaround. Late swap figures to play a key factor here. Powell is set to come off the bench, likely ceding his starting duty to first-round rookie Dereck Lively II at the campaign's beginning.
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dwight Powell (illness) is considered questionable for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the San Antonio Spurs. Powell is dealing with an illness, leaving his status for the opener in a state of flux. The 32-year-old veteran may already be lined up to back up No. 12 overall pick Dereck Lively II, who would only handle additional minutes if Powell is absent Wednesday. Maxi Kleber and Richaun Holmes would also see extra playing time if Powell cannot go. Whoever starts Dallas' opener down low figures to have their hands full with No. 1 overall pick Victor Wembanyama, so there might be limited fantasy appeal in this case, anyway. Powell belongs on most fantasy waiver wires in a crowded Mavericks frontcourt, in any event.
