Dereck Lively II Still Out On Thursday
Dereck Lively II (nose) won't return to the lineup on Thursday versus the Knicks, sitting out a fifth consecutive game due to a broken nose. Lively II's absence has left a big gap to fill inside the paint for Dallas. Maxi Kleber (toe) has done quite well with extended minutes and should continue to benefit in the situation, although he's listed as questionable for Thursday's action. If Kleber is unavailable, Dwight Powell would be the next big in line to start.
