Christian Wood (thumb) cleared Monday for Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks center Christian Wood (thumb) will be available on Monday against the Utah Jazz.

What It Means:

Wood has been upgraded from questionable and will return from an eight-game absence. He should see an uptick in usage as Luka Doncic (ankle) is out and Kyrie Irving isn't available to make his Mavericks debut. Dwight Powell will take a hit in Dallas' frontcourt.

numberFire's models project Wood for 34.2 minutes and 43.5 FanDuel points on Monday, and he has a $7,900 salary on the Main slate. Wood is averaging 48.1 FanDuel points per 36 minutes with Luka and Spencer Dinwiddie (trade) off the floor this season. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Mavs’ implied total (106.5) is second-lowest out of 16 active teams today.
