The Dallas Mavericks are grappling with injuries as they approach the latter part of the season. During their game against the Phoenix Suns, both Kessler Edwards and Dwight Powell had to exit after colliding on a rebound attempt. Powell was seen with a head injury, requiring attention from medical staff, while Edwards made a quick return with a bandage over his eye. The situation worsened for the Mavericks as Brandon Williams also left the game with a hamstring issue, further depleting their already limited roster.

With only nine active players suited up, key contributors like Dereck Lively II, Anthony Davis, and Daniel Gafford are sidelined with injuries. The Mavericks' depth will be tested as they navigate this challenging phase, searching for viable strategies to maintain competitiveness despite the setbacks.
