Daniel Gafford

Gafford exited Wednesday's win over the Heat during the third quarter, resulting in Anthony Davis spending more time at the center position. Davis started at the five on Wednesday, and that will likely remain the case regardless of Gafford's availability. Dwight Powell could potentially enter the rotation if Gafford sits, but this does not affect fantasy basketball.

Gafford continues to attempt to play through a lingering right ankle injury. Unfortunately, he had to leave Wednesday's game during the third quarter and has since been ruled out for the rest of the night. With Dallas' Week 7 slate concluding with a Friday/Saturday back-to-back, the few who have Gafford rostered should anticipate him missing at least one of those games. With Dereck Lively also out, that means more Anthony Davis at the center position as long as he's able to play back-to-backs, which may not be the case.
