The Dallas Mavericks (21-37) host the Memphis Grizzlies (21-36) on Friday night. Dallas is coming off a rather shocking loss to the lowly Sacramento Kings. Memphis is locked in to their tank, losing three in a row recently, with losses to Miami, Sacramento, and Golden State. This is a match up between two teams racing towards the lottery.
Here’s the main things you need to know:
- WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs Memphis Grizzlies
- WHAT: The second night of a home back-to-back
- WHERE: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas
- WHEN: 7:30 pm CST
- HOW: KFAA Channel 29, MavsTV streaming, NBA League Pass
It’s another brutal injury report for the Mavericks. They will be without so many players today. Starting with the obvious: Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively are still out. Cooper Flagg is missing another game due to his foot and Marvin Bagley is out after straining his neck in a fall against the Kings. Next there are four players listed as doubtful, which means they are out as well: Moussa Cisse, Ryan Nembhard, Klay Thompson, and PJ Washington. Caleb Martin is questionable with a back injury.

The Grizzlies also have a ton of guys out. Let’s list them off! Ja Morant, Zach Edey, Cederic Coward, Brandon Clark, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Kyle Anderson, and Sani Aldama. Ty Jerome is doubtful. Before the game tips SIXTEEN players between both teams aren’t going to play. Ridiculous.
Dallas is tired. Naji Marshall is playing 100000 minutes. Memphis has at least had a day off, whereas the Mavericks played one last night. This might be an ugly game but I bet Dallas hangs around.

Consider joining Josh and me on Pod Maverick live after the game on YouTube, we should start LATE. Thanks so much for spending time with us here at Mavs Moneyball. Let’s go Mavs!
