Kristaps Porzingis (toe) questionable Thursday for Mavericks
Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (toe) is questionable to play Thursday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
Porzingis missed Tuesday's game and the Mavericks inserted Sterling Brown into the starting lineup with Dorian Finney-Smith and Dwight Powell in the frontcourt. Luka Doncic (ankle, protocols) will remain out Thursday, so Porzingis should see a larger role on offense if he's able to play. Tim Hardaway Jr. (health and safety), Maxi Kleber (protocols), and Willie Cauley-Stein (personal) are also out for the Mavericks.
numberFire's models currently project KP for 35.3 minutes and 47.3 FanDuel points on Thursday. Powell put up 26.6 FanDuel points in 21.2 minutes on Tuesday without Porzingis.
