Sun Feb 1123:38Luka Doncic Likely To Play Versus The Wizards
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (nose) is listed as probable heading into Monday's matchup versus the Washington Wizards. The All-Star has been banged up all year. However, his latest ailment, a broken nose, shouldn't keep him out of the lineup on Monday night. Doncic continues to make a difference for fantasy managers, and he's coming off an impressive 32-point, nine-assist, eight-rebound performance on Saturday against Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder. But if Doncic he can't suit up, Kyrie Irving (thumb) should handle most of the work at the one, assuming he's cleared to play.

Sat Feb 1014:11Luka Doncic Good To Go Versus OKC

Wed Feb 722:57Luka Doncic Probable Against The Knicks
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (nose) is expected to play on Thursday versus the New York Knicks. The 24-year-old took an inadvertent elbow to the face from Kyrie Irving during Sunday's game in Philadelphia. He was able to play on Tuesday and began the game with a protective face covering. However, he quickly got rid of it, and it's apparent his nose wasn't giving him any problems, considering he finished with 35 points, 18 rebounds, and nine assists. Nonetheless, there's still a chance Doncic won't play, although he'll likely be out there. But if he isn't, Kyrie Irving (thumb) will take over duties at the one, with Josh Green and Tim Hardaway Jr. in line to benefit the most from a statistical standpoint.

Tue Feb 619:02Luka Doncic To Play On Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (nose) is available ahead of Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Doncic has been cleared to play, but he'll wear a protective mask because of his nasal contusion. The hope is that the mask won't impact his play on the court. The assumption is that he'll resume his normal role in the rotation. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups and make sure Doncic is in there.

Mon Feb 516:04Luka Doncic Will Play Against 76ers
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is available for Monday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. Doncic is still dealing with soreness in his right ankle, but he'll play through it against Philadelphia and likely take on his usual workload. Monday marks the front end of Dallas' back-to-back set, though. With Joel Embiid (knee) soon becoming ineligible for the 2023-24 MVP award, Doncic is certainly in the running with averages of 34.8 points, 9.6 assists, 8.6 rebounds, 3.9 threes, and 1.4 steals over 41 games. Co-superstar Kyrie Irving (thumb) is back in the Mavs lineup for this one, so while Doncic will have a bit less on his plate, he is still an elite DFS play with this game carrying the highest implied point total (244.5) on Monday's six-game slate.

Sun Feb 418:37Luka Doncic Questionable For Monday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. Doncic's ankle has given him trouble over the last week or more, so his presence on the injury report is something fantasy managers are used to by this point. It would be a tough break for managers if he can't play, considering he scored at least 40 points in each of his previous two contests. At any rate, if Doncic doesn't suit up, Kyrie Irving (thumb), who's expected to return from a lengthy layoff, should absorb most of the ball-handling duties. Additionally, Josh Green and Derrick Jones Jr., would remain viable streaming options if Doncic isn't available.

Fri Feb 221:59Luka Doncic Off The Injury Report
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is off the injury report ahead of Saturday's showdown with the Milwaukee Bucks. Doncic wasn't available on Wednesday in Minnesota, marking his eighth absence of the 2023-24 campaign. But it appears he's good to go, which is good news, considering Kyrie Irving (thumb) isn't expected to play. The 24-year-old is averaging a career-high 34.7 points with 9.6 assists, 8.6 rebounds, and 1.4 steals this season. He's also shot 37.5% from deep. That said, Doncic's presence should mean fewer minutes and scoring chances for Jaden Hardy. Still, Hardy remains a viable streaming option if Irving doesn't return.

Wed Jan 3111:51Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving Out On Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guards Luka Doncic (ankle) and Kyrie Irving (thumb) won't play Wednesday against Minnesota. Doncic, who's had a massive workload lately, will sit out his first game since Jan. 15, while Irving will miss a fifth consecutive game. With Dante Exum (knee) also on the injury report as doubtful, the Mavericks backcourt could be very shorthanded on Wednesday. The trio of Jaden Hardy, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Josh Green should do most of the heavy lifting.

Sat Jan 2720:23Luka Doncic Cleared For Saturday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) will suit up for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Doncic will play after being listed as questionable coming into this game due to right ankle soreness. His usage should remain sky-high with Kyrie Irving (thumb) still sidelined. It's unlikely that Doncic will surpass his 73-point outing from Friday. Regardless, fantasy managers can feel safe plugging Doncic into their lineups here.

Sat Jan 2715:43Luka Doncic Questionable Against The Kings
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable moving toward Saturday's meeting with the Sacramento Kings. Kyrie Irving (thumb) wasn't available for Friday's win over the Atlanta Hawks. However, it didn't matter, with Doncic finishing that one with 73 points, the fourth-most in NBA history. But he also logged 45 minutes, so there's a good chance fantasy managers won't have him in the lineup. With Irving and Derrick Jones Jr. (wrist) also in danger of missing this game, Josh Green, Dante Exum, and Tim Hardaway Jr. could each see a substantial uptick on the scoring end.

Wed Jan 2411:27Luka Doncic Questionable Against Suns
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (back) is currently listed as questionable for the team's Wednesday game against the Phoenix Suns. The franchise star has missed three of the last six games, but he played for 39 minutes on Monday, recording an impressive 33 points, 18 rebounds, and 13 assists against the Celtics. Over the last two seasons, Doncic has maintained an average of 38 points per game in matchups against the Suns, including a notable 50-point game in December. If Doncic is unable to play, Tim Hardaway Jr. would likely take on a more significant role with increased minutes.

Thu Jan 1810:04Luka Doncic Returns With 30-Point Triple-Double
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic put together a big comeback performance on Wednesday against the Lakers, returning to the lineup with a triple-double. Dallas struggled and went down 127-110 in Los Angeles, but Doncic had fun all night and piled up 33 points, 13 rebounds, and 10 assists. He logged 36 minutes and also had an impact on the defensive end with two steals and two blocks. Doncic shot only 2-for-9 from downtown but nailed a solid 12-for-24 from the field overall. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Kyrie Irving, who carried the Mavericks offense during Doncic's absence, both struggled on Wednesday, shooting a combined 9-for-33 from the field.

Wed Jan 1720:33Luka Doncic Available On Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is available ahead of Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The superstar guard will make his return to the court after missing each of the last three games. There is no word on Doncic being limited, so the assumption is that he'll have his normal workload. The return of Doncic will send Tim Hardaway Jr. to the bench. His fantasy value will take a hit with the move to the second unit, but fantasy managers should hold Hardaway for the moment.

Tue Jan 1621:45Luka Doncic Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The star guard has missed each of the last three games due to a right ankle sprain. Tim Hardaway Jr. has been playing extremely well in the starting five while Doncic is out. The expectation is that Hardaway will continue to start and have strong streaming appeal until Doncic is ready to return. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Wednesday for another update on his status.

Sun Jan 1422:38Luka Doncic Not Expected To Play On Monday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) has been listed as doubtful against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday. This will likely be his third consecutive missed game with this ankle sprain, but his status is an upgrade from getting ruled out right away. He seems to be moving in the right direction, but it will take at least one more game until he's healthy enough to take the floor. In his absence, Kyrie Irving will see high usage once again while Tim Hardaway Jr. will be the biggest beneficiary. He's scored 24 and 32 points in the last two games and will be called upon again to help out in the scoring department.

Fri Jan 1215:48Luka Doncic Ruled Out Again For Saturday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) has been ruled out for a second consecutive game while he deals with a right ankle sprain. Despite not playing in their last game against the New York Knicks, the Mavericks were able to squeak by with a win behind Kyrie Irving's 44 points. Doncic's ankle sprain must be a bad one to keep him out of this contest against the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday because it could mean a lot when it comes to playoff seeding. They're a half-game behind the Pelicans and a win would put them in the sixth seed instead of potentially the play-in. While Doncic is out, Irving's usage should skyrocket again while Tim Hardaway Jr. will also see a boost in minutes.

Thu Jan 1109:48Luka Doncic Sits Out Thursday's Game
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) won't play on Thursday against New York. He battled through an ankle sprain in Tuesday's matchup against Memphis but will take Thursday off. Doncic's absence could result in a massive performance from Kyrie Irving, who will have all the keys to the offense. Meanwhile, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Jaden Hardy should get extra burn off the bench, with Dante Exum (heel) also unavailable for the Mavericks.

Tue Jan 919:18Luka Doncic Available Against Grizzlies
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) has been upgraded from probable to available for Tuesday's home battle with the Memphis Grizzlies. Doncic won't let swelling in his right ankle stop him from suiting up as Dallas continues their big seven-game homestand. The 24-year-old Slovenian sensation has been terrific in all types of fantasy leagues with improved shooting at the charity stripe, compiling 33.7 points, 9.2 rebounds, 8.2 assists, 4.0 treys, and 1.3 steals per night in 2023-24. Deploy Doncic as you normally would, as Tuesday's outing is neither the first nor second part of a back-to-back set. There is a bit of blowout risk for DFS purposes in the Mavs' favor, however, against a 13-23 Grizzlies team that just got news on Monday that superstar Ja Morant (shoulder) is done for the year.
