Questions
Who is out for the Mavericks?
No Mavericks player is listed out or doubtful right now. 3 are day-to-day or questionable: Dereck Lively II (C), Morez Johnson Jr. (F), Santi Aldama (F). Day-to-day players often play, but statuses change through the day, so check this page again closer to tip-off.
When does the Mavericks injury report come out?
Under league rules, NBA teams file injury designations by 5 p.m. local time the day before a game, or by 1 p.m. on the second night of a back-to-back, and update them as statuses change. This page rebuilds through the day from ESPN's injury data, which follows those team announcements.
How many wins are the Mavericks projected for in 2026-27?
31.8 wins on average across 20,000 simulated seasons, with 90% of them between 17 and 48. That gives the Mavericks a 21% chance to make the playoffs and <1% to win the title. The rating behind it uses game results only, never betting lines.
