Mavericks' Zaccharie Risacher: Strong showing off bench Friday
Risacher recorded 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 28 minutes off the bench during Friday's 116-111 win over the Rockets.
It's beginning to look like the Hawks may have given up on Risacher a bit too quickly. While the 21-year-old wing may never live up to his billing as the first overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, he's providing the Mavs with valuable depth so far, particularly on defense. Over the last five games (one start), Risacher is averaging 10.6 points, 6.0 boards, 2.0 blocks, 1.6 assists, 1.6 threes and 1.4 steals in 30.2 minutes.

Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Drops 18 in Friday's win
Gafford amassed 18 points (6-7 FG, 6-9 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 29 minutes during Friday's 116-111 victory over the Rockets.
The 18 points were a season high for Gafford, who continues to operate without much backup in the paint as Dereck Lively (foot) and Santi Aldama (knee) remain sidelined. Gafford has recorded exactly blocks in six straight games to begin the season, averaging 8.5 points, 7.0 boards, 2.5 assists, 2.0 blocks and 0.8 steals in 23.3 minutes while shooting 70.0 percent from the floor.

Mavericks' Kyrie Irving: Pours in game-high 35 in win
Irving closed Friday's 116-111 win over Houston with 35 points (12-19 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds and nine assists across 35 minutes.
The veteran point guard led all scorers on the night, combining for 68 points with Cooper Flagg as the Mavericks handed the Rockets their first loss. The 35 points were also a season high for Irving, as were the nine assists. He hasn't played more than 60 regular-season games in a campaign since 2018-19, but Irving's been mostly healthy to begin the current season and is averaging 21.4 points, 4.8 assists, 3.4 boards, 3.2 threes and 1.2 steals in 28.6 minutes over five contests while shooting 52.7 percent from the floor.

Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Logs another full stat line Friday
Flagg finished Friday's 116-111 win over the Rockets with 33 points (13-19 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 7-10 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, two steals and one block across 39 minutes.
Although he struggled from three-point range once again, Flagg turned in another productive all-around performance in Dallas' first NBA Cup game of the year. The star forward erupted for a season-high 33 points and was second on the Mavericks in scoring behind Kyrie Irving (35 points). Flagg also finished second on the team in rebounds and assists. He's posted at least 26 points, six assists and five rebounds in three consecutive contests, though he's shot just 20.0 percent from downtown during that span.

Mavericks' Sergio de Larrea: To be re-evaluated next week
Head coach Dusty May said Friday that de Larrea (knee) will be re-evaluated next week, Noah Weber of TheSmokingCuban.com reports.
De Larrea sprained his right knee in Monday's win over Miami and is without a definitive timetable for a return to action. However, his absence shouldn't cause any significant waves in the rotation.

Mavericks' Santi Aldama: Out again Friday
Aldama (knee) is listed as out for Friday's game against the Rockets.
Aldama continues to make progress in his recovery from right knee surgery, though he won't be ready to suit up for Friday's meeting with Houston. Without Aldama on the floor, Zaccharie Risacher, Morez Johnson, Caleb Martin and Moussa Cisse should all continue to see extra minutes.

Mavericks' Tarik Biberovic: Ruled out Friday
Biberovic (heel) is out for Friday's game against the Rockets.
Right heel bursitis continues to plague Biberovic. Monday's tilt versus the Kings marks his next chance to make his league debut.

Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Good to go Friday
Marshall (illness) is available for Friday's game against Houston.
Marshall initially drew a questionable tag before being upgraded to probable Friday afternoon, and he's since been cleared to play following a two-game absence. The 28-year-old forward is averaging 13.7 points, 5.7 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals across 27.7 minutes per contest in three regular-season games (one start). With Marshall back in action, Caleb Martin and Zaccharie Risacher could see fewer minutes.

Mavericks' Tarik Biberovic: Doubtful for Friday
Biberovic (heel) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Rockets.
Biberovic has yet to make his NBA debut and is unlikely to do so Friday due to right heel bursitis. However, his potential absence wouldn't affect the rotation.

Mavericks' Santi Aldama: Unlikely to play Friday
Aldama (knee) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against Houston.
Aldama appears to be making progress in his recovery from right knee surgery, though he's not expected to make his season debut Friday. His eventual return will leave fewer minutes available for guys like Caleb Martin and Moussa Cisse.

Mavericks' Caleb Martin: Productive outing in season debut
Martin (thumb) racked up 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal across 14 minutes during Wednesday's 120-96 win over the Thunder.
Martin made his season debut Wednesday, delivering an efficient shooting performance while finishing as one of eight Mavericks players to score in double figures. The 31-year-old forward faces plenty of competition for minutes this season, and it's worth noting that Naji Marshall (illness), Sergio de Larrea (knee) and Santi Aldama (knee) were all unavailable Wednesday.

Mavericks' Morez Johnson: Settling into NBA action
Johnson posted 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and three assists over 18 minutes during Wednesday's 120-96 victory over the Thunder.
The Mavericks continue to bring the rookie first-rounder along slowly after Johnson missed the start of training camp. Until his restrictions are loosened, Johnson's fantasy upside will remain capped.

Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Strong showing on glass in win
Gafford produced seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), 11 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 120-96 victory over the Thunder.
The 11 boards led Dallas on the night, although Gafford didn't see enough offensive opportunities to produce his first double-double of the season. The 28-year-old center hasn't seen a significant increase in his workload to begin the season even with Dereck Lively (foot) and Santi Aldama (knee) still waiting to make their 2026-27 debuts, and in 22.4 minutes over five games Gafford is averaging 6.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.0 steals while shooting 65.2 percent from the floor. Wednesday's three-pointer was also the first of his career, on his second ever attempt from beyond the arc -- the other came back in 2021-22 with the Wizards.

Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Just misses double-double Wednesday
Washington supplied 18 points (7-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one block over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 120-96 win over Oklahoma City.
The veteran forward fell one board short of his second double-double of the season. Washington has been his usual steady self through five games, scoring in double digits in all five games while averaging 16.0 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.0 threes, 1.2 assists and 1.2 blocks in 33.4 minutes.
