Mavericks' Max Christie: Ruled out Saturday
Christie (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Cleveland.

Christie (hip) is probable for Friday's game against the Jazz.
The swingman is primed to end a one-game absence Friday due to a hip injury. Christie had been starting at shooting guard for the Mavericks before getting hurt, but it remains to be seen if 2024 No. 1 overall pick Zaccharie Risacher has played well enough to keep his hold on a starting job.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Won't return Monday
Christie has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Kings due to a right hip injury, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports. He'll end the night with no points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in eight minutes.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Dealing with shin injury
Christie (shin) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Spurs.
Christie may have picked up the injury during the Mavericks' 121-105 win over the Pacers on Friday, when he played 38 minutes and finished with 16 points, four rebounds, four assists and one steal. If he cannot play in the second leg of the Mavericks' back-to-back set, then Marcus Sasser and Zacharrie Risacher would be the top candidates to enter the starting five.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Struggles in season opener
Christie racked up five points (2-8 FG, 1-7 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 128-110 loss to Houston.
Christie took his place in the starting lineup despite dealing with a minor foot concern. While it was good to see him on the floor, his production left a lot to be desired. He provides the team with a legit floor-spacing option, although he typically offers very little else outside of points and threes. On nights such as this, it's clear to see why he should be viewed as more of a stream-level player.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Starting Wednesday
Christie will start Wednesday's game against the Rockets.
Christie will return to the starting lineup after being held out of Friday's preseason finale. As a result, Zaccharie Risacher will retreat to the second unit. In 68 regular-season starts last year, Christie averaged 12.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.4 triples, 2.0 assists and 0.6 steals in 29.5 minutes per contest.

Christie (foot) will play in Wednesday's regular-season opener against Houston, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Christie is dealing with a sore foot, but he practiced Tuesday and is expected to be a full go for Wednesday. Christie is projected to open the season as the No. 2 shooting guard on the depth chart.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Expected to play Wednesday
Christie (rest) is expected to play in Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Rockets.
Christie sat out Friday's preseason finale but should suit up when the Mavericks head to Houston on Wednesday. Over 77 regular-season games (68 starts) with Dallas in 2025-26, he averaged 12.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 29.1 minutes per tilt.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Resting Friday
Christie (rest) will be inactive for Friday's preseason finale against the Hawks.
Christie will skip Dallas' preseason finale for maintenance purposes, but he should be fine for the Mavs' regular season opener against the Rockets on Wednesday. With Christie out, there will be more minutes available for Zaccharie Risacher, Caleb Martin and Sergio de Larrea.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Starting versus New Orleans
Christie will start in Wednesday's preseason game against the Pelicans, Christian Clark of The Athletic reports.
Christie will make his second start of the preseason. In two preseason appearances in 2026-27, the 23-year-old has averaged 14.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals across 22.9 minutes per contest.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Effective off bench
Christie recorded 14 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 22 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 132-115 preseason win over Houston.
Christie delivered an efficient performance in a reserve role, shooting 57.1 percent from the field while connecting on both of his three-point makes. After starting Dallas' previous preseason matchup against Houston, Christie moved to the second unit for Sunday's contest, which also marked Kyrie Irving's return to action. The lineup change could signal a reserve role for Christie to begin the regular season, though his perimeter shooting should help him remain involved in the Mavericks' rotation.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Lands four triples in preseason loss
Christie finished with 14 points (5-12 FG, 4-11 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Friday's 135-117 preseason loss to Houston.
Christie hit the ground running in the preseason opener, connecting on a team-high four three-pointers. It appears as though he will begin the season as a starter for Dallas, where he will serve as a floor-spacer, presumably launching a high amount of perimeter shots. At this point, his overall game is a little empty, which does make him a somewhat risky option in standard leagues. At best, he should be viewed as more of a three-point streaming consideration.

Mavericks' Max Christie: Targeting bigger role
Christie is eying a larger role in the backcourt this season, per Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com.
Christie already made a career-high 68 starts a year ago, and he appears to be the early favorite to start at shooting guard over newcomer Zaccharie Risacher and Naji Marshall. The sharpshooter should see plenty of open looks from long range, now that Kyrie Irving is back in the fold, but Christie is just a late-round fantasy flier as the expected third of fourth scoring option in the Dallas offense.
