Mavericks' Olivier-Maxence Prosper: Garbage-time appearance
Prosper ended Tuesday's 132-91 win over the Pelicans with three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal across four minutes.
Prosper was rolled out during garbage time, a trend that seems unlikely to change anytime soon. As a player who is not an everyday part of the rotation, Prosper is averaging just 1.8 points and 1.4 rebounds in 6.1 minutes per game. Barring multiple injuries to players ahead of him, there is no reason to think he will be used in a meaningful role this season.

Mavericks' Klay Thompson: Drains five triples in win
Thompson closed Tuesday's 132-91 victory over the Pelicans with 19 points (6-15 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals in 24 minutes.
Thompson found some much-needed rhythm on the offensive end, connecting on five three-pointers en route to 19 points. Although he remains one of the most proven perimeter scorers in the league, Thompson has struggled to find any consistency since arriving in Dallas. Across 15 games, he is averaging 14.0 points and 3.1 three-pointers per game, adding very little in terms of peripheral numbers.

Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Leads all scorers in return
Doncic logged 26 points (10-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 132-91 victory over the Pelicans.
Doncic returned from a one-game absence, dropping a game-high 26 points. With the Mavericks taking control of this one early, the coaching staff was able to put Doncic on ice down the stretch. His 30 minutes marked his second-lowest total in a game so far this season.

Mavericks' Quentin Grimes: Moving back to bench
Grimes isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Pelicans, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Luka Doncic will reclaim his starting spot from Grimes after missing Dallas' previous contest with a knee injury. Grimes is averaging 3.9 points and 2.9 rebounds in 14.4 minutes across his last 10 appearances coming off the bench.

Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Gets green light Tuesday
Doncic (knee) is listed as available for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.
Doncic will give it a go after missing Sunday's win over the Thunder due to a lingering right knee contusion. The superstar has averaged 27.6 points, 7.4 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.6 steals across 38.0 minutes per game over his last five outings.

Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Goes through shootaround
Doncic (knee) participated in Tuesday's morning shootaround, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Doncic is currently listed as questionable to face the Pelicans on Tuesday, but his availability at the morning session is a good sign. He was unable to play Sunday against the Thunder after admitting that he's been playing through a lingering knee issue. If he doesn't get the green light for Tuesday, Quentin Grimes could possibly draw another start.

Mavericks' Luka Doncic: Iffy for Tuesday
Doncic (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.
Doncic admitted after Saturday's win over the shorthanded Spurs that he's been less than 100 percent over the last week, so it wasn't surprising to see him get the night off during Sunday's game against the Thunder, which the Mavericks surprisingly won. That was Doncic's first absence of the season, and if the MVP candidate remains sidelined Tuesday, Quentin Grimes would likely draw another start.

Mavericks' Klay Thompson: Muted performance in win
Thompson closed with five points (1-11 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one block and two steals over 25 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 victory over Oklahoma City.
Thompson couldn't get anything going Sunday, but the Mavericks managed to improve to 7-7 on the season. This was Thompson's third dud in a row, and fantasy managers will be hoping he can break out of this mini-slump soon. In his last three games, he's shooting 31.4 percent from the field and 29.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Double-double off bench Sunday
Gafford registered 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-7 FT), 12 rebounds and one block across 18 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 121-119 win over the Thunder.
It was the first double-double of the season for Gafford, who has been deployed as part of the second unit for three straight games. He's been a reliable source of secondary offense in November regardless of his role, scoring in double digits in seven straight contests while averaging 15.1 points, 7.3 boards and 1.6 blocks over that stretch while shooting 74.6 percent from the floor.

Mavericks' Kyrie Irving: Drops 23 in Sunday's win
Irving chipped in 23 points (9-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and six assists across 36 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 victory over the Thunder.
The veteran guard delivered his usual production, even with Luka Doncic (knee) in street clothes. Irving has scored more than 20 points with five or more assists in five straight appearances, averaging 27.6 points, 5.8 assists, 4.8 boards, 2.8 threes and 1.2 steals over that stretch while shooting a blistering 62.4 percent from the floor and 48.3 percent (14-for-29) from beyond the arc.

Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Career night on glass
Washington racked up 27 points (7-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 10-10 FT), 17 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 28 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 win over Oklahoma City.
The 17 boards were a career high for the 26-year-old forward, who also produced a season-high scoring effort in the absence of Luka Doncic (knee). Washington missed five games himself earlier this month due to knee trouble, and he was making his first start since Nov. 4. Doncic isn't expected to be sidelined for long, but Washington could continue to see elevated usage as long as the Mavs' superstar is unavailable.

Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Back to bench Sunday
Kleber will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Kleber started the last two games as a result of P.J. Washington's absence due to knee injury, but he will shift back to a bench role Sunday. Kleber holds averages of 2.5 points and 2.3 rebounds in 15.0 minutes per game across four appearances this season.

Washington will start Sunday's game against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Washington returned Friday in a limited role after missing five straight games due to a knee injury, but he will return to the starting five Sunday. With Luka Doncic (knee) unavailable, Washington may be called upon more often offensively.
