Expected to miss rest of season The Mavericks suffer another blow to their frontcourt with Prosper expected to undergo season-ending surgery on his right wrist, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Impact Prosper becomes one of many players on the Mavericks dealing with a severe injury. Kyrie Irving (knee) has already been ruled out for the season, and the same might happen to Anthony Davis (thigh). If the 22-year-old big man does end up having season-ending surgery, he'll have finished his second season in Dallas, averaging 3.9 points and 2.4 rebounds per game, shooting 40.2 percent from the floor.

Out with wrist injury Prosper won't play Friday against the Grizzlies due to a right wrist sprain, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Impact It's unclear as to when Prosper picked up the injury, but it'll cost him at least one game. Look for Caleb Martin (hip) and Kessler Edwards to pick up a few extra minutes in Prosper's absence.

Back to bench Friday Prosper is not in Dallas' starting lineup against New Orleans on Friday, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Impact Prosper started in Dallas' two games prior to the All-Star break and averaged 8.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals over 23.5 minutes per game over that span. Kessler Edwards will draw the start at center Friday while Prosper slides back to the bench.

Starting Wednesday Prosper is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Warriors, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Impact At 6-foot-8, Prosper is the tallest player in Dallas' starting five due to a slew of injuries at the center position. It'll be the second-year forward's third start of the season, and he averaged 7.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals across 28.0 minutes in his other two starts.

Scores 16 points off bench Prosper notched 16 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 129-128 overtime loss to Sacramento.
Impact Anthony Davis (adductor) and P.J. Washington (ankle) were both sidelined Monday, and Davis is likely to miss extended time. Plus, Daniel Gafford left with a knee injury, so the Mavericks could potentially be very shorthanded going forward. Prosper made a strong impression Monday and is someone to watch in deeper formats in case he strings a few good games together.

Slides to bench Tuesday Prosper will come off the bench in Tuesday's game against Philadelphia, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Impact Kessler Edwards will supplant Prosper in the starting five on Tuesday. The 22-year-old has received inconsistent playing time of late, and over his last 10 outings (two starts), he has averaged 7.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 17.3 minutes per game.

Balanced outing in second start Prosper finished Sunday's 144-101 loss to the Cavaliers with 10 points (4-15 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 31 minutes.
Impact Prosper got the starting nod for the second time of the year Sunday with P.J. Washington (knee) sidelined, notching a team-high-tying pair of steals while leading all starters in assists and finishing as one of six Mavericks in double figures in scoring. Prosper has reached double-digits in scoring in four outings this year, doing so in three out of his last six appearances.

Starting sans Washington Prosper will start in Sunday's game against Cleveland, Mavericks radio play-by-play broadcaster Chuck Cooperstein reports.
Impact With P.J. Washington (knee) sidelined, Prosper will receive the starting nod. Over his last 10 appearances (one start), the 22-year-old forward has averaged 7.0 points and 3.5 rebounds across 15.6 minutes per contest.

Shines off bench Monday Prosper contributed 20 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes during Monday's 130-108 victory over the Wizards.
Impact Prosper has had a limited role all season long, but he's been stepping up his game lately and taking advantage of the uptick in minutes due to the rash of injuries that has affected the Mavs. This means he's cleared the 20-minute mark in three of his last four outings while scoring at least 14 points twice in that span. That's not enough to roster him in most formats, but Prosper could have some upside as a streaming alternative in deep formats as long as the Mavericks remain depleted.
JANUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE
Season-high 14 points off bench Prosper recorded 14 points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-9 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 21 minutes during Thursday's 121-115 win over the Thunder.
Impact Prosper may have lost his spot in Dallas' starting five to Spencer Dinwiddie against a smaller Thunder lineup, but that didn't stop him from scoring a season-high 14 points off the bench during a busy night at the foul line. Prosper has seen an uptick in playing time over his last six games, where he's averaging 7.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.5 steals in 16.6 minutes. With the Mavericks' frontcourt dealing with several injuries at the moment, the 2023 first-rounder could continue witnessing a bump in minutes going forward.

Returns to bench Thursday Prosper will come off the bench in Thursday's game against Oklahoma City, Mavericks radio play-by-play broadcaster Chuck Cooperstein reports.
Impact Kessler Edwards will supplant Prosper in the starting five on Thursday. The 22-year-old received his second start over his two-year career in Wednesday's win over Utah with Klay Thompson (ankle) and Naji Marshall (illness) sidelined, during which he recorded four points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes.
JANUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE
Making second career start Prosper is part of the Mavericks' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Minnesota, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Impact Prosper will make his first start since Apr. 14, 2024, stepping into a larger role due to the absences of Klay Thompson (ankle) and Naji Marshall (illness). The second-year forward has averaged 6.0 points and 4.0 rebounds in 13.0 minutes during his last four appearances.
