Dereck Lively II Doubtful for Monday's Matchup
Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (knee) is listed as doubtful for the team's matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Lively is unlikely to play the appear on the second leg of the back-to-back, further limiting the team's frontcourt depth. If Lively and Gafford (ankle) are both absent, expect to see Anthony Davis garnering the majority of the center minutes. Lively has averaged 5.3 points, and 5 rebounds per game on an incredible 77.8% from the field this season. The team could also look toward D'Angelo Russell to fill out the lineup, and give the team a traditional point guard facilitator for their shorthanded squad.
