Starting Thursday Dinwiddie will start Thursday against the Bulls, Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.
Impact Dinwiddie will start in his Nets debut against the Bulls on Thursday. He'll join a Brooklyn starting lineup currently featuring Dorian Finney-Smith, Royce O'Neale, Day'Ron Sharpe and Cam Thomas.

Debuting Thursday Dinwiddie (coach's decision) will make his Nets debut Thursday against the Bulls, Chris Milholen of SI.com reports.
Impact Head coach Jacque Vaughn held out Dinwiddie in what could have been the point guard's debut Monday against the Clippers and Tuesday against the Suns, giving him more time to get acclimated. Dinwiddie should see plenty of usage in his new home, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned about his value changing, especially with Kevin Durant (knee) still sidelined. Since the beginning of the new year, Dinwiddie has averaged 20.8 points, 5.5 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 37.0 minutes.

Sitting out Tuesday The Nets announced that Dinwiddie won't be available for Tuesday's game against the Suns in a coach's decision, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
Impact Even though the Nets will be somewhat shorthanded Tuesday with three players already sitting out due to injury, head coach Jacque Vaughn won't turn to the team's new trade pickups -- Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith -- to fill minutes since neither has had the opportunity to practice with Brooklyn following their acquisition from the Mavericks on Monday. Edmond Sumner will likely be in line for another turn as the Nets' starting point guard, though that role should ultimately belong to Dinwiddie if Brooklyn doesn't ship him elsewhere ahead of Thursday's trade deadline. Dinwiddie's next chance to make his Nets debut arrives Thursday against the Bulls.
FEBRUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Change of plans, out Tuesday Dinwiddie will not make his Nets debut Tuesday against the Suns due to "coach's decision," Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.
Impact The guard was initially expected to play Tuesday, but there's been a change of plans. Dorian Finney-Smith is also out, but fantasy managers should expect both to debut Thursday against the Bulls. On a positive note, Ben Simmons (knee) will return after a five-game absence.

Likely to be available Tuesday Dinwiddie is expected to be available to make his Brooklyn debut in Tuesday's game against Phoenix, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
Impact Brooklyn hasn't officially commented on the statuses of Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith for Tuesday's contest, but after their acquisitions were finalized Monday, the shorthanded Nets could benefit from having both players available in some capacity for the second half of a back-to-back set. Because he hasn't yet gone through a full practice with the Nets, Dinwiddie may come off the bench Tuesday and/or have his minutes managed to some extent, but provided he isn't moved elsewhere ahead of Thursday's trade deadline, the 29-year-old should eventually settle into a full-time role as Brooklyn's starting point guard.

Not expected to play Monday Dinwiddie (recently traded) isn't expected to make his Nets debut Monday against the Clippers, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
Impact Per Schiffer, the blockbuster trade between the Mavericks and Nets isn't official as of Monday morning, and even if the deal is finalized later in the day, Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith likely still won't be available against Los Angeles. Brooklyn plays again Tuesday versus the Suns, which may also be too quick of a turnaround, so it's certainly possible the duo doesn't suit up for its new team until Thursday's matchup against Chicago.

Impact Dinwiddie will return to the team where he's seen the most success throughout his career, and he'll step into a decent-sized role, filling some of the offensive void vacated by Irving. At least in the short term, Dinwiddie's value should hold in Brooklyn, but his arrival takes some wind out of the sails of Cam Thomas. Dinwiddie may also see a downturn in his overall usage once the Nets have Kevin Durant (knee) and Ben Simmons (knee) back at full strength.

Pours in 25 without Doncic Dinwiddie produced 25 points (9-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Saturday's 119-113 loss to the Warriors.
Impact As one might expect, Dinwiddie carried a heavy load with Luka Doncic (heel) sidelined. Dinwiddie had an efficient night of scoring, converting 52.9 percent of his shots and going 3-of-6 beyond the arc. Doncic's absence resulted in Josh Green's insertion into the backcourt alongside Dinwiddie, but the combo was able to produce a total of only 37 points, far below the backcourt's usual numbers when Doncic directs the offense.

Active Saturday Dinwiddie (knee) will play in Saturday's game against the Warriors.
Impact Dinwiddie was initially listed as questionable for the contest due to recovery from a right knee issue but has been given the green light Saturday. He should retain a larger role in the Mavericks' offense with Luka Doncic (heel) sidelined and should increase his scoring output during the duration of Doncic's absence.
FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable Saturday Dinwiddie is questionable for Saturday's game against the Warriors due to right knee injury recovery.
Impact Dinwiddie has been particularly effective recently, as he's scored at least 20 points in eight of his last 10 appearances. Across that span, he's averaged 23.7 points, 5.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds in 35.9 minutes per game. He hasn't missed any time since Dec. 17, but if he's sidelined Saturday, Frank Ntilikina and Jaden Hardy would be candidates to see increased run.

Impact Dinwiddie struggled massively from the field, but his 12 trips to the charity stripe salvaged what would've otherwise been a rough fantasy performance. The veteran point guard has scored at least 20 points in five of his last six appearances, and he could be in line for increased offensive opportunities if Luka Doncic is forced to miss time due to the right heel bruise he suffered against the Pelicans on Thursday.
