Mavs host Pelicans in NBA Cup game The Dallas Mavericks will host the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night at 7:30 at American Airlines Center in an Emirates NBA Cup game.
Luka Doncic - Iffy for Tuesday Doncic (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.
Impact Doncic admitted after Saturday's win over the shorthanded Spurs that he's been less than 100 percent over the last week, so it wasn't surprising to see him get the night off during Sunday's game against the Thunder, which the Mavericks surprisingly won. That was Doncic's first absence of the season, and if the MVP candidate remains sidelined Tuesday, Quentin Gimes would likely draw another star.

Klay Thompson - Muted performance in win Thompson closed with five points (1-11 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one block and two steals over 25 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 victory over Oklahoma City.
Impact Thompson couldn't get anything going Sunday, but the Mavericks managed to improve to 7-7 on the season. This was Thompson's third dud in a row, and fantasy managers will be hoping he can break out of this mini slump soon. In his last three games, he's shooting 31.4 percent from the field and 29.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Daniel Gafford - Double-double off bench Sunday Gafford registered 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-7 FT), 12 rebounds and one block across 18 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 121-119 win over the Thunder.
Impact It was the first double-double of the season for Gafford, who has been deployed as part of the second unit for three straight games. He's been a reliable source of secondary offense in November regardless of his role, scoring in double digits in seven straight contests while averaging 15.1 points, 7.3 boards and 1.6 blocks over that stretch while shooting 74.6 percent from the floor.

Kyrie Irving - Drops 23 in Sunday's win Irving chipped in 23 points (9-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and six assists across 36 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 victory over the Thunder.
Impact The veteran guard delivered his usual production, even with Luka Doncic (knee) in street clothes. Irving has scored more than 20 points with five or more assists in five straight appearances, averaging 27.6 points, 5.8 assists, 4.8 boards, 2.8 threes and 1.2 steals over that stretch while shooting a blistering 62.4 percent from the floor and 48.3 percent (14-for-29) from beyond the arc.

P.J. Washington Jr. - Career night on glass Washington racked up 27 points (7-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 10-10 FT), 17 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 28 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 win over Oklahoma City.
Impact The 17 boards were a career high for the 26-year-old forward, who also produced a season-high scoring effort in the absence of Luka Doncic (knee). Washington missed five games himself earlier this month due to knee trouble, and he was making his first start since Nov. 4. Doncic isn't expected to be sidelined for long, but Washington could continue to see elevated usage as long as the Mavs' superstar is unavailable.
