Impact Green has missed the last 12 games due to a right ankle sprain but appears to be trending in the right direction, as he had been listed as doubtful ahead of recent matchups. Even if he's cleared to suit up Wednesday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him face a minutes restriction.

Impact Thursday will mark Green's eighth straight game on the sidelines, and considering he still hasn't practiced, it seems unlikely he'll play Friday against the Warriors. Derrick Jones, Tim Hardaway and Jaden Hardy will continue to pick up the slack in his absence.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Absence to continue Tuesday Green (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Golden State.

Impact Green has been able to do some conditioning work in the pool since ditching his walking boot, but his sprained right ankle needs to heal a bit more before he can take part in basketball activities. The fourth-year forward is without an official timeline for a return since suffering the injury March 14, but he looks to be closer to week-to-week than day-to-day at this stage of his recovery.

Impact Green stepped on another player's foot while running to defend in transition Thursday, and the injury appears set to cause a multi-week absence for the 23-year-old. Kidd mentioned that the timetable on Green was a couple weeks, so an injury update could follow in the week to come. Green's status as an undersized wing has made Dallas defensively porous during his time on the court, but he's still an important perimeter body and positive offensive contributor that will be subtracted from the rotation in the short term moving forward.

Ruled out for Sunday Green (ankle) will not play in Sunday's matchup with the Nuggets, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

In the forward's absence, Tim Hardaway could see some extra run in the rotation.

Quiet in loss Tuesday Green notched six points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 137-120 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Green produced a sub-par effort in the loss, continuing his recent struggles. He has now scored fewer than eight points in five straight games, sitting well outside the top 250 in that time. Despite having two hands on a starting role, Green is not worth rostering outside of deeper formats.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with minor elbow injury Green is probable for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a right elbow injury, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Per Townsend, Green "dinged his elbow" during Monday's loss to Indiana, but it appears the issue is minor. He finished that contest with 14 points (6-8 FG), five rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes and continues to be a solid starter for a Mavericks squad that snapped a seven-game win streak Monday. Over the last eight games, Green has averaged 12.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.4 steals in 28.5 minutes per game.

Efficient despite loss to Indy Green totaled 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and two steals across 32 minutes during Sunday's 133-111 loss to the Pacers.

Impact The Mavericks were far from being at their best offensively outside of their star duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, and in fact, Green was the only other starter who scored in double digits in this one. That said, Green is far from being a top-notch offensive threat, as evidenced by the fact he has failed to surpass the 15-point mark in his last seven appearances, a span in which he's averaging 11.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.6 assists per contest.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Making impact on defense Green notched nine points (3-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, five assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Thursday's 123-113 victory over the Suns.

Impact The fourth-year forward isn't getting many looks on offense, scoring in single digits in three of the last four games, but Smith is still contributing on the defensive end. He's recorded multiple steals four times during the Mavs' current seven-game win streak, averaging 11.9 points, 3.6 boards, 3.0 assists, 2.0 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch and shooting 55.8 percent from the floor and 50.0 percent (14-for-28) from beyond the arc. While the efficiency is encouraging, his usage figures to remain low as long as both Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving are healthy.
