  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Ruled out for Sunday

    Kleber won't play in the season finale Sunday against the Spurs due to injury recovery from a previous right hamstring injury.

    Kleber is one of several Mavericks players that won't play in the season finale with the team out of playoff contention. Kleber struggled with injuries all season and logged only 37 appearances, starting in five of those contests. He averaged 5.9 points and 3.6 rebounds per game.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Sitting Friday

    Kleber (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.

    Kleber returned to action Wednesday against the 76ers but will be one of several Mavericks sitting out the penultimate game of the regular season. Reggie Bullock and Davis Bertans could see increased run against Chicago.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Good to go Wednesday

    Kleber (hamstring) will play in Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

    Kleber sat out the closing leg of the Mavericks' back-to-back set Monday to nurse his surgically repaired hamstring but will be back in action Wednesday. He will come off the bench for the contest as coach Jason Kidd opted for Tim Hardaway and Reggie Bullock to fill the forward spots and left center duties to Dwight Powell.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Listed as questionable

    Kleber (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

    Kleber took a seat for the second half of a back-to-back set Monday to rest his surgically repaired hamstring but has a chance to return to game action Wednesday. Before his absence, he appeared in eight straight contests (five starts), averaging 5.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 27.6 minutes.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Out Monday

    Kleber (hamstring) is out for Monday's contest against the Pacers.

    Kleber is out for Monday's contest as he tends to a right hamstring injury that sidelined him for 35 straight games earlier this season. The likes of Christian Wood, Reggie Bullock and Davis Bertans emerge as candidates to receive more usage against the Pacers. Kleber's next chance to suit up comes Wednesday in Philadelphia.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Questionable for Monday's contest

    Kleber is questionable for Monday's matchup against Indiana due to right hamstring injury recovery.

    Kleber came off the bench Sunday and scored 14 points (4-9 FG) in 32 minutes, but he may take a seat for the second half of Dallas' back-to-back set to manage the left hamstring injury that sidelined him for three months earlier in the season. If that's the case, Christian Wood, Reggie Bullock, Davis Bertans and Josh Green would all be candidates for increased roles.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Productive in return to bench

    Kleber closed with 14 points (4-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 32 minutes during Sunday's 110-104 loss to the Hornets.

    After starting the prior five games, Kleber moved back to the second unit Sunday and had his best scoring performance since October, setting a new season high for made threes in the process. The 31-year-old's lack of consistent offense makes him a generally unappealing fantasy option, but his ability to contribute in both threes and blocks can allow him to pop on occasion as a bargain DFS tournament dart throw.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Not starting Sunday

    Kleber isn't starting Sunday's game against the Hornets, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

    Josh Green has been reinserted into the starting lineup, so Kleber will move back to the bench after starting five straight games. Across five appearances as a reserve this season, Kleber has averaged 5.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 24.2 minutes.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Drains game-winning triple

    Kleber logged 10 points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes during Friday's 111-110 win over the Lakers.

    Kleber was quiet for almost the entire game Friday, but he came through when Dallas needed him most. He was fouled by Anthony Davis on a three-point try with seven seconds remaining and proceeded to knock down all three foul shots to bring the Mavericks to within a point. After Davis missed one of two free-throws on the other end, Kyrie Irving got the ball to Kleber just in time for the big man to take and make a buzzer-beating, game-winning triple. Kleber ended with double-digit points for the first time since he scored 13 against the Knicks on Dec. 3.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Poor outing against Spurs

    Kleber notched three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 137-128 overtime win over San Antonio.

    Kleber struggled to make an impact in the 28 minutes he logged, and both Dwight Powell and Christian Wood visibly outplayed him. However, this might have been nothing more than a bad outing. Whether Kleber starts again may be determined by Tim Hardaway's (calf) status.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Making first start of season

    Kleber will enter the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.

    Kleber is joined by Jaden Hardy, Josh Green, Reggie Bullock and Dwight Powell in the starting lineup with the Mavericks missing Luka Doncic (thigh), Kyrie Irving (foot) and Tim Hardaway (calf) on Wednesday. Although we haven't seen what a starting workload looks like for Kleber, he can be expected to handle 25-30 minutes.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Will play Saturday

    Head coach Jason Kidd said Friday that Kleber (hamstring) is good to go for Saturday's matchup against the Grizzlies, Callie Caplan of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Kleber took the second night of Dallas' recent back-to-back set off for injury maintenance, but the German big man will be back in action Saturday. Since returning from a lengthy injury absence, Kleber has appeared in three of the Mavericks' past five contests, averaging 7.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 23.3 minutes.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Won't play Wednesday

    Kleber won't play Wednesday in New Orleans due to right hamstring injury recovery.

    Kleber saw 26 minutes during the first half of Dallas' back-to-back set Tuesday, but he'll take the night off Wednesday to rest his hamstring. Since returning from a lengthy absence, Kleber has appeared in three of four games and averaged 7.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 23.3 minutes during that stretch. Reggie Bullock (quad) is unlikely to play Wednesday, so Christian Wood, Justin Holiday, Markieff Morris and Davis Bertans are all candidates for increased roles versus the Pelicans. Kleber's next chance to suit up will come Saturday in Memphis.
