Doncic on short rest as Mavs seek replay of deep playoff run
The Dallas Mavericks are easing Luka Doncic into training camp two weeks after he played for Sloveni in the EuroBasket tournamentSEPTEMBER 26, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Set for bench role in Dallas Mavs coach Jason Kidd confirmed Monday that Wood will begin the season in a sixth man role, Callie Caplan of the Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact This was the rumor throughout the summer after the Mavs traded for Wood, but Kidd officially confirmed the notion at media day, noting that Dallas will primarily roll with a starting five of Luka Doncic, Spencer Dinwiddie, Reggie Bullock, Dorian Finney-Smith and JaVale McGee. Kidd did concede that Wood would likely start in certain matchups, but the hope is that he's able to embrace the new role and take advantage of opposing bench units. For what it's worth, Wood said Monday that he had not previously been informed of Kidd's plan to use him off the bench. Either way, even as a reserve, Wood should still play significant minutes in Dallas, but he makes for somewhat of a risky fantasy investment given the change in scenery. Wood closed last season with averages of 17.9 points, 10.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.0 blocks, 0.8 steals and 1.9 threes per game in 68 appearances (30.8 MPG).

Expected to come off bench Wood is expected to come off the bench to begin the 2022-23 season, Tim Cato of The Athletic reports.
Impact Wood was traded from the Rockets to the Mavericks in mid-June after starting in 67 of his 68 appearances with Houston last year. He had a well-rounded season for the Rockets with 17.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 30.8 minutes per game but will likely need to carve out a role off the bench early in his time with his new team.
