The Dallas Mavericks revealed their injury report Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. The Mavs are looking to jump back into the win column, so monitoring their injury situation will be extremely important.
Kyrie Irving (right foot soreness), Tim Hardaway Jr. (back spasms) and Grant Williams (right knee soreness) are all listed as questionable for the game. Josh Green (right elbow sprain) and Maxi Kleber (right toe dislocation) have been ruled out for Wednesday's contest.
Irving received an encouraging injury update Monday after returning to practice. For now, Irving, Hardaway and Williams' statuses are all up in the air. Dallas' injury situation, especially with Green and Kleber out, likely means that AJ Lawson will remain with the NBA team for the time being.
Mavs looking to rebound despite injury trouble
Dallas enjoyed a strong start to the 2023-24 season. The team has struggled in recent action, though, dropping five of their past seven games.
The Mavs' defense has endured its ups and downs, but the real issue as of late has been the aforementioned injury trouble. Still, Dallas will enter Wednesday's game with confidence against the 7-13 Jazz. With that being said, the Mavericks cannot afford to take Utah for granted.
A win Wednesday would be pivotal ahead of the Mavs' upcoming road trip. Dallas has dropped two games in a row at home so regaining some momentum before heading to Portland to battle the Trail Blazers will be important.
All the Mavs can do at the moment is hope that Irving, Hardaway and Williams will be ready to go for the game. We will continue to monitor and provide updates on the Mavs as they are made available.
