Naji Marshall

The Mavericks are without Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively II for Wednesday's game, with the latter having injured his ankle during Tuesday's loss to the Nuggets. Dinwiddie and Gafford will replace them in the lineup, with the former worth streaming in this spot (Gafford is already rostered in most standard leagues).

Kyrie Irving's return to the Mavericks' lineup did not impact Marshall's place in the rotation; he should be a starter as long as Luka Doncic (calf) remains sidelined. However, production has been less than many hoped since Dallas's two starts went down. Over the past two weeks, Marshall has provided 15th-round value in 9-cat formats. Rostered in 16% of Yahoo leagues, he's worth holding onto for now, but fantasy managers should not hesitate to seek alternatives on other teams.

Irving is back in the Mavericks' lineup after missing five games with a lumbar back sprain. His return pushes Spencer Dinwiddie to the bench in the lone change to Dallas' starting five. Regarding his workload, Irving will play between 30 and 33 minutes against the Nuggets.

Draymond Green had the perfect response to Jusuf Nurki after the Phoenix Suns center was given a three-game suspension for a scuffle with Dallas Mavericks forward Naji Marshall.

The Mavericks remain without Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, and Daniel Gafford will also miss Tuesday's game. There's one change to the lineup that started Monday's loss to Memphis, with Dinwiddie replacing Maxi Kleber. The move into the starting lineup raises Dinwiddie's fantasy ceiling, and he's worth streaming with Doncic and Irving out.
