Christian Wood (illness) questionable Thursday for Mavericks
Dallas Mavericks center Christian Wood (illness) is questionable to play Thursday versus the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
Wood was a late addition to the injury report and he could miss Thursday's matchup. Dwight Powell and Maxi Kleber will likely play more minutes if Wood is ruled out. Luka Doncic would also be asked to carry an even larger load on offense. Wood has the second-highest usage rate (27.3%) in the Mavericks' rotation behind Doncic (38.0%).
Wood has a $12,500 salary on Thursday's single-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 35.3 FanDuel points, second-most on the board behind Luka (55.5).
