Fantasy Impact: Wednesday will mark the third-straight game that Hardaway has missed because of an ankle injury. The exact timetable for his recovery is unclear as of now, but the team hopes that he will be back sooner rather than later. Josh Green will continue to see increased minutes while the veteran remains sidelined.

Luka Doncic (knee) is expected to play in Wednesday night's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Doncic's knee injury leaves him with an injury designation ahead of Wednesday night's game, but he's officially probable and should play against the Clippers. He should start and continue to see an elite workload in a playoff matchup against the Clippers.

Fantasy Impact: Gafford missed practice on Thursday after only playing nine minutes in Tuesday's win. Dereck Lively should continue to take on a big role off the bench regardless of if Gafford is active or not.

Grant Willaims is headed to Charlotte after the Mavericks dealt him, Seth Curry, and a first-round pick for the Hornets forward P.J. Washington.

Fantasy Impact: Grant Williams and Curry have been more efficient than Washington this season from beyond the arc, but both lack the kind of upside Washington brings and neither has made a big impact for the team thus far. Williams just has not lived up to what the Mavericks looked for when they brought him in this offseason. With Charlotte rebuilding, they may look to move Williams again before the deadline passes for a team looking to build defensive depth.

Fantasy Impact: Holmes was playing 10 minutes per game in Dallas this season. He could play a bigger role with the Wizards, but he'll likely remain off the fantasy radar.

Jaden Hardy scored 17 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 3P, 2-2 FT) along with a single rebound in the Mavericks' 118-102 win over the 76ers on Monday.

Fantasy Impact: Hardy was productive on the scoreboard in his limited minutes. He's a very interesting player, and it seems that he will have a good game either rebounding, with assists, or scoring but hardly ever two at the same time. He's not been incredibly consistent and his minutes do fluctuate, so he's best left on waivers for now.
