2024-25 NBA In-Season Tournament Group Play: Dec 4, 2024

Smart (illness) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

Bane (oblique) supplied 18 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals over 27 minutes off the bench during Friday's 123-118 loss to the Warriors.

Doncic (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

Lively will remain in the starting role "for the next couple of games," head coach Jason Kidd told media, including Landon Thomas of Mavs Fans For Life, in his post-game press conference following Saturday's win over the Spurs. "We'll see how D Live handles these next couple of games as a starter, and then we'll figure out who will start after that. But, D Live has been great."
