Maxi Kleber (back) uncertain for Mavericks Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks power forward Maxi Kleber (back) is questionable to play Tuesday versus the Golden State Warriors.
What It Means:
Kleber tried playing through his back problem on Monday but only lasted 10 minutes. It would be somewhat surprising if he is active on the second night of a back-to-back. Trey Burke started the second half in place of Kleber on Monday. Nico Melli, Willie Cauley-Stein, and Dwight Powell would also be in line for more work if Kleber sits.
Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Mavericks currently have the third-lowest implied total (111.0 points) out of the 12 teams playing Tuesday.
