Exum is on a long list of injured Mavericks, and guys like Naji Marshall, Spencer Dinwiddie and Jaden Hardy could see increased run against Sacramento.
AD started out hot in his Mavs debut before exiting early in Saturday's win over Houston. Now that he's sidelined, Dallas will need to adjust its starting five again. That may mean Dante Exum or Kessler Edwards will run with the first unit again, but the biggest beneficiaries of Davis' absence will be PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford. Washington is questionable with a right ankle sprain, so the Mavs' frontcourt could be particularly shorthanded.
Washington will be back after a two-game absence. With Anthony Davis expected to make his debut for Dallas, Dante Exum and Kessler Edwards will be pushed to the bench, though neither held much value in fantasy basketball.
Dallas could have to wait a while for Martin's Mavericks debut. The former 76ers wing hasn't played since early January. Dante Exum will get a chance to get most of the minutes backing up PJ Washington while Martin recovers from his hip strain.
With Anthony Davis still not ready to make his Mavs debut, the team will trot out yet another unique starting five. Edwards started one other game this season, though his 7/4/2/1 line across 23 minutes was far from memorable.
