Mavericks injury report: Klay Thompson upgraded for Celtics game
Mavericks' Klay Thompson upgraded to available vs Celtics
Klay Thompson has been dealing with a left ankle sprain. The Dallas Mavericks' injury trouble has been impossible to ignore this season and Dallas would love for Thompson to return from the injury as soon as possible. So with the Mavs set to host the Boston Celtics in a 2023-24 NBA Finals rematch on Saturday, is Thompson playing in the game?
One of those players missing in those games was Klay Thompson. Thompson has missed the last two games with a sprained left ankle, but he entered Saturday's contest as questionable to play against the Boston Celtics.
Thompson officially reached the 16,000-point mark when Dallas faced the Denver Nuggets at American Airlines Center. The veteran was key to a hot start for the Mavericks, going 5-for-7 from the field and 4-for-5 from 3-point range as Dallas raced out to a comfortable first-half lead.
Harrison is pleased with what Thompson has provided so far, but says Dallas will truly benefit from having the veteran in the playoffs.
Thompson (ankle) is available for Saturday's game versus the Celtics but will be limited to around 24-25 minutes, Grant reports.
The Dallas Mavericks will play their fourth and final matchup of the season against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday, with both teams playing on the second night of a back-to-back. Both teams are also dealing with hefty injury reports, with 12 players total out for this matchup.
Klay Thompson was a cornerstone of the Golden State Warriors dynasty, helping them secure 4 NBA Titles. However, his departure from the franchise this offseason marked the end of an era – one riddled with loyalty questions in its final stages.
Klay Thompson is listed as questionable for the Dallas Mavericks' matchup against the OKC Thunder on Thursday. The four-time NBA champion's participation will be a game-time decision.
Luka Doncic is among six Mavericks players who will not be available for Monday night's game against the Wizards.
The Dallas Mavericks will take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in a regular season matchup on Wednesday. Ahead of the game, eight Mavericks players, including Klay Thompson, appear on the injury report, though Kyrie Irving is confirmed to play against Minnesota.
For MFFLs who can stomach keeping track, that’s three Dallas centers lost to injury in an 11-day span: Dereck Lively II, Dwight Powell and Kleber. The Mavericks’ season-long “next man up” mantra is being tested at a mind-boggling rate and proportion.
As well as Kyrie Irving has played, the hobbled Mavericks have been a bottom-seven offense over the past month, minus Luka Dončić.
