Daniel Gafford’s status has been upgraded to questionable for Saturday’s game against the Pistons after previously being listed as doubtful in recent contests. This development is promising for the Mavericks, who are dealing with the absences of Anthony Davis and Dereck Lively II. Should Gafford remain sidelined, Dwight Powell is expected to see an increase in minutes, with the team likely opting for smaller lineups when Powell is off the court.
