  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Just 10 minutes in win

    Kleber provided zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and three rebounds in 10 minutes during Tuesday's 121-116 victory over Memphis.

    Kleber was limited to just 10 minutes, the fewest he has played in more than a week. A couple of injuries to other players in recent times had opened up some additional playing time for Kleber. Unfortunately, he failed to make the most of the opportunity, scoring a total of just 10 points in the past seven games. As long as the frontcourt is relatively healthy, Kleber is unlikely to be a difference-maker moving forward.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Back to bench Sunday

    Kleber will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

    Kleber started the last two games as a result of P.J. Washington's absence due to knee injury, but he will shift back to a bench role Sunday. Kleber holds averages of 2.5 points and 2.3 rebounds in 15.0 minutes per game across four appearances this season.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Receives spot start vs. Jazz

    Kleber will enter the starting lineup in Thursday's game against the Jazz, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

    Despite Naji Marshall filling in as the starting power forward in P.J. Washington's (knee) absence thus far, Kleber will get the spot start Thursday and play for the first time since Oct. 26. The big man has appeared in only two regular-season games this year due mainly to a right hamstring strain, and he averaged 2.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists across 15.5 minutes per game.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Gets 17 minutes in start

    Kleber (hamstring) started at power forward and produced three points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) in 17 minutes in Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Jazz.

    Kleber had missed seven straight games with a hamstring strain before being cleared for action last Sunday. He hadn't gotten off the bench in either of the Mavericks' previous two contests in coach's decisions, but Kleber entered the starting five Thursday while Naji Marshall moved back to the bench after starting in the prior four contests. Marshall still saw significantly more playing time (34 minutes) than Kleber, who could find himself back outside of the rotation when P.J. Washington (knee) and/or Kyrie Irving (shoulder) are available again after both sat out Thursday.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Upgraded to doubtful for Friday

    Kleber (hamstring) has been upgraded to doubtful for Friday's contest against Phoenix, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Washington (knee) also out, Naji Marshall and Olivier-Maxence Prosper will see extended playing time until one of Kleber or Washington returns.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Timeline for return remains unclear

    Head coach Jason Kidd stated Kleber (hamstring) is doing well in his recovery but wouldn't speak on whether the center would return during the team's current homestand, Noah Weber of The Smoking Cuban reports.

    The Mavs have four more games after Thursday on the current homestand, so the fact that Kidd is unwilling to commit to a return during that time likely means Kleber will miss at least a few more contests. Dereck Lively and Dwight Powell should handle the majority of the backup center minutes until Kleber returns.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Won't play Thursday

    Kleber (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Houston.

    Kleber will be sidelined for a third consecutive game due to a right hamstring strain. Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively will continue starring at the center position, although Kleber's ongoing absence removes the element of long-distance shooting from the Mavericks' center position.

    Coach Jason Kidd said Monday that Kleber (hamstring) will not travel with the team for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Downgraded to out

    Kleber (hamstring) will not play Monday against the Jazz, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Unable to practice

    Kleber (hamstring) was not present at Monday's morning shootaround, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Iffy for Monday

    Kleber (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against the Jazz.

    Kleber left Saturday's loss to the Suns due to a right hamstring injury and may miss his first game of the season Monday. If he's downgraded to out, Naji Marshall is a candidate for increased minutes, while Olivier-Maxence Prosper or Dwight Powell could enter the rotation as well.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Won't return Saturday

    Kleber won't return to Saturday's game against the Suns due to a right hamstring injury, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

    Kleber posted two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists and one rebound in 16 minutes prior to departing. Though the 32-year-old remains part of Dallas' rotation to open the 2024-25 season, he'll likely have a tough time surpassing 20 minutes in most games while all of Daniel Gafford, Dereck Lively and P.J. Washington are available in the frontcourt. Kleber can be viewed as day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Jazz.

  • Mavericks' Maxi Kleber: Active in practice Friday

    Kleber (ankle) participated in Friday's practice ahead of the club's regular-season opener against the Spurs on Thursday, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

    Kleber was held out of the preseason due to a sprained ankle, though his return to practice bodes well for his status to open the regular season. The 32-year-old will likely compete for playing time with Olivier-Maxence Prosper, Naji Marshall and Dwight Powell in a stacked frontcourt behind P.J. Washington, Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively.
