Luka Doncic - Expected to play Sunday Doncic (groin) is expected to play against the Nuggets on Sunday, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.

Impact Doncic suffered a groin injury during the Mavericks' loss to the Suns on Friday. However, the issue doesn't appear to be serious enough to be sidelined for Sunday's game. Through nine regular-season games, Doncic is averaging 28.8 points, 8.1 assists, 8.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals over 37.2 minutes per game.

Klay Thompson - Shooting slump continues Thompson had 12 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Suns.

Impact Thompson has been relegated to the role of being a third option in the Mavs' offensive scheme behind Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, and he's definitively struggling to adjust to having fewer touches than ever in his career. Thompson's efficiency has been affected as well. He's failed to reach the 15-point mark in three of his four appearances this month, shooting a meager 33.3 percent from deep in that span.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Kyrie Irving - Stuffs stat sheet Friday Irving finished with 29 points (10-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-9 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and three steals over 41 minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Suns.

Impact Irving has been a productive option in the Mavericks' offensive scheme, and while there's no doubt Luka Doncic is the absolute go-to option in that department, Irving's numbers have been very good in their own right. The veteran floor general has scored at least 27 points in four of his last six appearances, a span in which he's shooting 25.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.5 assists per contest.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Luka Doncic - Massive stat line not enough Friday Doncic logged 30 points (11-25 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 42 minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Suns.

Impact Doncic finished just three rebounds and three assists away from recording what would've been his first triple-double of the season. The stats are there for anyone to see them, and Doncic remains an elite producer regardless of the format you're playing, but the efficiency is starting to become an issue. Through nine contests in 2024-25, he's shooting just 40.7 percent from the field and 34.1 percent from deep, with both figures being down compared to any of his previous five seasons.
