Dante Exum

DAL Shooting Guard #0

According to ESPN Australia’s Kane Pittman, there’s “growing optimism” within the Australia camp that Dante Exum (compound finger dislocation) will be available for Tuesday’s game against Canada.

Exum sat out Australia’s opener at the Paris Olympics, a 92-80 win over Spain on Saturday. The good news for the Boomers is that he participated in contact drills during Sunday’s practice, and there will be another session on Monday ahead of Tuesday’s game against Canada. Due to the presence of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jamal Murray in the Canada lineup, having another capable perimeter defender would be a positive development for Australia.
Kessler Edwards

DAL Small Forward #17

Kessler Edwards has agreed to a two-way contract with the Mavericks, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

Edwards has proven himself to be solid depth piece in the NBA, but on a two-way deal, he will likely spend more time in the G-League this upcoming season. He can play a reserve role if Dallas needs him to, but he isn’t a player that will impact fantasy basketball next season.
Spencer Dinwiddie

DAL Point Guard #26

The Athletic’s Shams Charania reports that Spencer Dinwiddie has agreed to a one-year deal with the Mavericks.

Dinwiddie played for Dallas for parts of the 21-22 and 22-23 campaigns, and he’ll be back for another run with the defending Western Conference champions. Dinwiddie should offer microwave scoring and playmaking to bolster a bench that lost Josh Green and Tim Hardaway Jr. in the offseason.
Kyrie Irving

DAL Point Guard #11

Shams Charania of The Athletic reports that Kyrie Irving underwent surgery to repair a broken left hand.

Irving apparently suffered the injury while training in early July, but the severity of the injury and a potential timeline for return are unknowns.
Olivier-Maxence Prosper

DAL Power Forward #18

Olivier-Maxence Prosper logged 27 minutes in Monday’s 108-88 loss to Memphis, scoring 16 points (6-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, two steals, and two 3-pointers.

Dallas got off to a brutal start on Monday and never recovered, getting blown out for the second consecutive game. Prosper was one of the bright spots, as he hit two 3-pointers on four attempts and tied for the team lead in assists with Brandon Williams. As a rookie, O-Max did not see much action, and he’ll face an uphill battle for rotation minutes in 2024-25. However, the loss of Derrick Jones Jr. may lead to more opportunities for Prosper to contribute, especially as a defender.
AJ Lawson

DAL Shooting Guard #9

AJ Lawson accumulated 16 points (4-of-16 FGs, 7-of-8 FTs), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block, and one 3-pointer in 29 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Jazz.

Lawson had a rough night shooting the basketball, going 25% from the field, but he produced a solid effort on the glass. Only Isaiah Whaley (nine) had more rebounds than Lawson among Mavericks players. And he has work to do in Las Vegas. While Lawson did sign a four-year deal last season, his contract for the 2024-25 season is not fully guaranteed until January 10. And even if Lawson does enough to secure his place on the roster, he may not be able to offer tangible fantasy value.
Melvin Ajinca

DAL Small Forward

Melvin Ajinca finished Saturday’s 90-89 loss to Utah with 13 points (5-of-13 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block, and one 3-pointer in 24 minutes.

Ajinca was selected by the Knicks with the 51st overall pick in last month’s draft, with his draft rights being traded to the Mavericks. Dallas has one open two-way slot to work with, which could be what Ajinca is competing for this summer. He was solid against the Jazz, even if the shooting accuracy left something to be desired. He was active on both ends of the floor, and that effort stands to be Ajinca’s best path to an NBA contract.
Luka Doncic

DAL Point Guard #77

Luka Doncic finished Saturday’s 96-68 loss to Greece with 21 points (7-of-14 FGs, 2-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, five assists, one steal, and five 3-pointers in 34 minutes.

After finishing fourth at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, Slovenia will not appear in Paris. Doncic led the way offensively but was also responsible for 10 turnovers, as Greece jumped out to a 13-0 lead and did not look back. While the Mavericks certainly weren’t opposed to Doncic representing his country, the time off this summer should be a positive for the perennial MVP candidate. After playing at the FIBA World Cup last summer and winning a silver medal, Doncic aggravated a prior leg injury during the preseason. While good to go to begin the 2023-24 campaign, having a healthy Doncic in training camp this time will be a positive for Dallas.
Klay Thompson

DAL Shooting Guard #11

Klay Thompson intends to join Dallas on a three-year, $50 million deal, which will happen to a multi-team sign-and trade that will also send Josh Green to Charlotte, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Thompson reportedly had four year offers that were worth more money, but he took a pay cut to try and win a championship with the Mavs. His departure will open up a starting spot that will likely be filled by second-year guard Brandin Podziemski, barring more moves by the Warriors. Thompson should fill out the starting forward spot opposite PJ Washington, which means that Naji Marshall will likely fill a reserve role behind them. Green will have a chance to see big minutes for the Hornets next season, though his fantasy upside will be limited. As part of the sign-and-trade, the Mavericks have sent two future second-round picks to the Warriors.
Naji Marshall

DAL Small Forward #8

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Mavericks and Naji Marshall have agreed to a three-year, $27 million deal.

A solid bench contributor for the Pelicans during his four seasons in New Orleans, Marshall is headed to Dallas for the next step in his career. Appearing in 66 games last season, he averaged 7.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.9 3-pointers in 19.0 minutes. Marshall’s signing calls into question the future of Derrick Jones Jr., who is also a free agent. Jones was a consistent starter for the Western Conference champions, and his exit would free up additional minutes for Marshall. In fact, Marshall could start if Dallas was unable to sign Klay Thompson.
