Ntilikina is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves with a non-COVID illness, Callie Caplan of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Ntilikina is one of six Mavericks players ruled out for Sunday's contest. Two players have been placed into the NBA's COVID protocol but Ntilikina's illness was specified as non-COVID. Hopefully it stays that way and he can return Tuesday in a rematch against the Timberwolves.
