The Mavericks have traded forward
Marquese Chriss to Houston in exchange for
Christian Wood. The Rockets are also receiving
Trey Burke,
Sterling Brown,
Boban Marjanovic, and the No. 26 overall selection in the NBA Draft. Chriss hasn't lived up to expectations since entering the league back in 2016 and finished last season by averaging only 4.5 points and 3.0 rebounds. It's unlikely the 24-year-old will receive much work during his second stint in Houston, so unless he gets more playing time, he won't have much value for managers in any fantasy format.

Dallas Mavericks forward
Marquese Chriss (knee) won't suit up against the Kings on Saturday. This is hardly a surprise, primarily since the 24-year-old has been out since mid-February because of right knee soreness. However, the Mavs will also be without
Maxi Kleber (foot), who will miss his second consecutive game, so the team will unquestionably look to
Dwight Powell and
Davis Bertans to fill the void. Powell has a higher ceiling. Yet, Bertans can surprise managers if he can get minutes versus Sacramento, which is possible if
Luka Doncic (toe),
Trey Burke (shoulder), and
Sterling Brown (illness) don't play.

Dallas Mavericks forward
Marquese Chriss (knee) won't be in the lineup on Saturday for the rematch with the Clippers. The 24-year-old is dealing with right knee soreness, an injury that forced him to leave Thursday's game early. Chriss has averaged five points and nearly four boards per outing since joining the team, and while he doesn't play a ton, his absence should open up more minutes for
Maxi Kleber and
Dwight Powell, making them both a bit more relevant from a fantasy standpoint.

Dallas Mavericks forward
Marquese Chriss (knee) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He finished with two rebounds and only lasted five minutes before exiting due to right knee soreness. The Mavericks have a rematch against the Clippers on Saturday. Fantasy managers should consider Chriss questionable for that game.
Maxi Kleber and
Dwight Powell would see increased roles if Chriss is forced to sit out. Kleber has slightly more fantasy value, but fantasy managers will have to wait and see what happens with Chriss after the game.
