Naji Marshall News, Rumors, Updates - Dallas Mavericks

Productive off bench Thursday Marshall had 19 points (9-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, four assists and three steals across 34 minutes in Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Jazz.

Impact Marshall was moved to a bench role in favor of Maxi Kleber, but Marshall logged far more minutes and outplayed him on both ends of the court. The former Xavier standout was Dallas' second-best scorer behind Luka Doncic in this one. It wouldn't be surprising if Marshall returns to a starting role for the game against the Spurs on Saturday.

Won't start Thursday Marshall is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Jazz, Mark Followill of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

Impact Marshall has been replacing P.J. Washington in the starting lineup in recent games, but the Mavs will shake things up in the frontcourt and Maxi Kleber will get the nod at power forward. Marshall is averaging 11.2 points and 4.7 rebounds per game in six November appearances.

Modest performance in spot start Marshall closed with eight points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 119-99 win over Chicago.

Impact Marshall moved into the starting lineup Wednesday, replacing P.J. Washington who was ruled out with a knee injury. This game was all over but the shouting heading into the second half, allowing the second and third units to play additional minutes down the stretch. It appears as though Marshall will remain in the starting lineup until Washington gets back on the court. Although his production is typically low-volume, his ability to contribute across multiple categories should keep him on the floor.

Starting sans Washington Marshall is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Marshall will fill in for P.J. Washington (knee) in the first unit, marking his first start since joining the Mavericks this offseason. Marshall saw a season-high 34 minutes Monday and delivered 20 points, five rebounds, six assists and a steal on 8-of-9 shooting from the field.

Matches career high with 20 points Marshall accumulated 20 points (8-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 134-127 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Marshall received additional playing time, surpassing the 30-minute mark for the first time this season. The fifth-year pro was only averaging 3.3 points through the first seven games of the season, so his elevated total was unexpected. For now, fantasy managers should consider this line as an outlier performance.

NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Records five assists Marshall closed with four points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals over 21 minutes during Sunday's 108-85 win over the Magic.

Impact Marshall dished out a season-best mark of five assists in the win. The veteran forward has had a minimal impact in fantasy leagues through six games this season, averaging 3.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 18.5 minutes.

NOVEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Snags two steals Marshall amassed four points (0-3 FG, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 120-114 win over the Timberwolves.

Impact Marshall had a limited offensive impact Tuesday, although his small-scale versatility is still symbolic of his game. He remains Dallas' top forward off the bench.
