Chriss (knee) has been traded to Houston from Dallas, along with Boban Marjanovic, Trey Burke, Sterling Brown and the 26th pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, in exchange for Christian Wood, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Chriss has been on the go across the past few seasons, and now he'll make his way to Houston. It'll be his fifth team in a matter of two years, as the center most recently averaged 4.5 points and 3.0 rebounds in 34 appearances with Dallas during the 2021-22 campaign. Shortly after the trade was announced, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reported that Chriss underwent knee surgery Wednesday and would be out for a couple of months for rehab purposes, so he may not be fully available for the start of training camp. The Rockets already have a roster filled with young talent in the frontcourt, however, so it's unlikely that Chriss will make an impact right away for the Rockets.
Chriss (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Chriss sat out Friday due to the illness, but he'll return for the regular season finale. Over his past 10 appearances, the sixth-year forward has averaged 3.3 points and 2.0 rebounds in 6.9 minutes per game.

Mavericks' Marquese Chriss: Ruled out Friday

Chriss won't play Friday against the Trail Blazers due to a non-COVID illness.
Chriss had one of his more productive outings in Wednesday's win over the Pistons, contributing 12 points, one rebound and a steal in just 10 minutes of action. It appears he's now dealing with a non-COVID illness, however, so he'll miss Friday's tilt with Portland as a result. Depending on his health, his next opportunity to return will be Sunday for the Mavs' regular-season finale against the Spurs.

Mavericks' Marquese Chriss: Upped to probable
Rotowire
The Mavericks upgraded Chriss (knee) from questionable to probable for Friday's game in Philadelphia.
After having not played since Feb. 10 due to right knee soreness and missing 13 games along the way, Chriss finally looks set to play Friday. Even before the injury, Chriss hadn't taken hold of a significant role off the Dallas bench, averaging just 11.4 minutes per game over his five appearances in February. Expect him to have a similarly muted role now that he's ostensibly healthy again.
Chriss (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the 76ers.
Chriss last played Feb. 10 but could make his return as soon as Friday. Chances are, he'll have his workload monitored when he returns, though he was typically only seeing five to 15 minutes regularly. More information should arrive on gameday.

Chriss (knee) participated in Tuesday's practice and could return during the upcoming weekend, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.
Chriss has been out for more than a month due to right knee soreness, but Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd indicated that he could be available as early as Friday against the 76ers or Saturday against the Hornets.
