Mavericks' Khris Middleton: Not ready to make Mavericks debut

Middleton (recently traded) is out for Thursday's game against the Spurs.

The Mavericks' moves prior to Thursday's trade deadline still aren't official, therefore Middleton isn't yet cleared to make his Dallas debut. That could change for Saturday's meeting with San Antonio. With the Mavs shorthanded Thursday, Max Christie, Caleb Martin and Klay Thompson could each push for minutes near the 30s.
