Thu Apr 17 | 08:58 | Klay Thompson Sinks Five Triples En Route To 23 Points |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson finished 5-for-7 from deep and had 23 points in Wednesday's 120-106 victory over the Sacramento Kings. Thompson, who went 0-for-10 from the field in his final game as a Warrior during the Play-In Tournament against the Kings last season, finished 8-for-11 overall from the field and tallied five rebounds with two assists, one steal, and one block. The veteran sniper had much to prove following last year's shocker, and turned out to be one of the key performers in Wednesday's game. Dallas will need a similar effort from him on Friday against the Memphis Grizzlies. During the regular season, the Grizzlies held Thompson to 30 percent three-point shooting and 11.3 points per game. |

Wed Apr 16 | 09:02 | Klay Thompson Good To Go Wednesday |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (foot) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's play-in contest against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran sharpshooter missed Sunday's regular-season finale against the Memphis Grizzlies with a foot sprain. This was only his third absence since the beginning of February, so Thompson has enjoyed a healthy spell, which is a big plus for the Mavericks. Thompson averaged 14.0 points per game during his first year in Texas. However, his recent output has been inconsistent, as Thompson has finished three of his last five appearances with single-digit points. The Kings limited Thompson to 11.0 points during the regular season, despite his red-hot 46.2 percent shooting from downtown. |

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat after being downgraded from questionable to out. Thompson logged 34 minutes on Wednesday in a special matchup against his former team, the Golden State Warriors, and the Mavericks will manage his workload by giving the veteran the night off against Miami. Kyrie Irving (shoulder) has also been ruled out, which means the Mavericks will enter Thursday's contest without any of their regular starters. Naji Marshall, Dante Exum, Max Christie, and Spencer Dinwiddie could all emerge as key players instead of the usual suspects. |

Thu Feb 13 | 17:28 | Klay Thompson Is Questionable On Thursday |
Dallas Mavericks forward Klay Thompson (foot) played 34 minutes against his former team on Wednesday night, but he is listed as questionable on Thursday against Miami for the second half of the Mavericks' back-to-back set of games before the All-Star break. Thompson had 17 points, seven assists, two rebounds, two blocks, and a steal in the win and has been a solid recent contributor for the Mavericks, who are dealing with multiple injuries in their frontcourt. Thompson is joined by Kyrie Irving (shoulder) as questionable on the injury report, and if Kyrie is out but Klay plays, he could have a heavy workload. If both starters are sidelined, the rest of the depth chart will be especially busy, opening huge fantasy opportunities for Spencer Dinwiddie, Max Christie, and Naji Marshall. |

Sat Jan 25 | 16:51 | Klay Thompson Returning On Saturday |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (ankle) will play on Saturday against Boston. The former Golden State Warrior missed the last two games because of a sprained left ankle. Fortunately, he's good to go for the NBA Finals rematch. Thompson has had one of the worst seasons of his career, averaging 13.6 points. He could have trouble turning things around on Saturday, considering the Celtics have allowed just 108.4 points per game, the sixth-best mark in the National Basketball Association. Still, Thompson is worthy of a spot in most fantasy lineups, especially with Luka Doncic (calf) on the shelf. His presence will likely result in Quentin Grimes heading back to the bench, |

Fri Jan 24 | 19:53 | Klay Thompson Questionable Against Boston |
Dallas Mavericks forward Klay Thompson (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's NBA Finals rematch with the Celtics. Thompson has missed the last two games because of a sprained ankle. But he's not the only Maverick on the injury report, with Dereck Lively II (ankle), Naji Marshall (illness), Dwight Powell (hip), and Luka Doncic (calf) all sidelined. In addition, Jaden Hardy (ankle) is questionable. If Thompson remains on the shelf against Boston, Quentin Grimes, averaging 14.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in 12 starts during the 2024-25 campaign, will likely continue to fill his spot in the rotation. |

Thu Jan 23 | 14:46 | Klay Thompson Out Thursday Against The Thunder |
Dallas Mavericks forward Klay Thompson (ankle) will miss a second straight game on Thursday as the Mavs visit the Thunder to finish their back-to-back. Since Naji Marshall (illness) is also out for a second straight game, Quentin Grimes will have to carry a hefty workload. On Wednesday, he was also questionable with a back issue but was able to play and log 36 minutes in Dallas's one-point loss to Minnesota. Grimes only had five points, four rebounds, and three assists despite playing plenty of minutes, and he'll look to be more productive on Thursday in a tough matchup against Oklahoma City. Thompson's next chance to return will be Saturday at home against the Celtics. |

Wed Jan 22 | 18:35 | Klay Thompson Sits Out Wednesday's Action |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (ankle) will not take the court for Wednesday's meeting with Minnesota. The veteran sharpshooter has been downgraded from questionable to out. Dallas kicks off a back-to-back on Wednesday, so there is hope Thompson is not dealing with anything serious and can make a quick return to the lineup on Thursday versus Oklahoma City. Quentin Grimes (back) will return to action and should play a larger role in the rotation, while Olivier-Maxence Prosper also has a chance to log more minutes. |

Tue Jan 21 | 21:19 | Klay Thompson Might Not Play On Wednesday |
Dallas Mavericks forward Klay Thompson (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The former Warrior hasn't had a productive year, averaging 13.6 points, the second-lowest mark of his career, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.0 assists. However, he's at least remained relatively healthy, missing only five games throughout the 2024-25 campaign. But the Mavs are in trouble as far as depth is concerned, considering Luka Doncic (calf) and Jaden Hardy (ankle) will remain sidelined, with Dereck Lively II (ankle), Naji Marshall (illness), and Quentin Grimes (back) carrying questionable designations. As of now, Spencer Dinwiddie and Kyrie Irving appear to be on tap for a productive evening on Wednesday. But others should also benefit, depending on who is cleared to suit up. |

Mon Dec 30 2024 | 21:16 | Klay Thompson Misses Monday's Action With An Illness |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (illness) will not suit up for Monday's game against Sacramento. He's caught an illness bug, leaving the Mavericks without four regular starters for the contest. Spencer Dinwiddie, Quentin Grimes, and Jaden Hardy should all benefit from the long list of absentees. The former two have already previously provided good fantasy production. Hardy showcased his potential in the previous game against Portland, where he nailed three triples en route to finishing with 11 points and four rebounds. |

Tue Dec 3 2024 | 19:13 | Klay Thompson Back On Tuesday Night |
Dallas Mavericks forward Klay Thompson (foot) will play on Tuesday night versus Memphis after missing the last four games because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot. The former Golden State Warrior has struggled to find his footing in his first season with the Mavs, averaging 13.2 points, the second-lowest of his career. He'll likely bounce back at some point. But fantasy managers should lower their expectations for at least a game or two, especially since Thompson is coming off a four-game layoff. With Naji Marshall (illness) out, Spencer Dinwiddie, coming off a 20-point showing in Sunday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers, is still worth considering for fantasy lineups. |

Dallas Mavericks guard Klay Thompson (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran guard has missed the last four games due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot. Quentin Grimes has been starting in his place and has been taking advantage of the extra playing time. In fact, Grimes has scored over 20 points in each of the last three games. He's looking like a fantastic fantasy option right now especially with Thompson sidelined. |

Mon Nov 25 2024 | 18:33 | Klay Thompson Out On Monday |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (foot) will not take the court on Monday against Atlanta. The team has downgraded Thompson from questionable to out. Considering this is the second leg of a back-to-back, it was always looking unlikely that Thompson would be in the Mavericks lineup. Naji Marshall might step back into the starting lineup as a result of Thompson's absence. He's done well in the role this season, averaging 10.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.0 steals. |

Tue Sep 17 2024 | 21:18 | Klay Thompson Ready For A New Chapter In Dallas |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson is ready to start another chapter after spending his entire career in Golden State. "I'm excited for a whole new chapter of my career that has a chance to be so special," said Thompson to The Dallas Morning News. "I know we can do something special." Thompson's resume includes four NBA championships and five All-Star selections. Unfortunately, he is coming off a down year, averaging 17.9 points and 38.7% shooting from behind the arc. The 34-year-old also spent time coming off the bench, which caused friction with his previous coach, Steve Kerr. But Thompson should remain in the starting lineup all year, so he could have a bounce-back year as long as he stays healthy. |
