Goes 0-of-9 in loss Monday Thompson failed to score (0-9 FG, 0-6 3PT) in Monday's 110-96 preseason loss to the Clippers, adding three rebounds, one assist and one block in 21 minutes. Impact Thompson was ice cold in the loss, highlighting the fact that his overall value is perhaps more reliant than ever on just two categories. The Mavericks brought him in to spread the floor, something he will be able to do, even when his shot isn't falling, due to a career full of highlight moments. For fantasy managers, Thompson should be viewed as a late-round target, someone who could in fact be expendable at times throughout the season.
