4 years agoThe Dallas Mavericks had a positive COVID-19 test Thursday prior to their flight home from Denver and Jalen Brunson, Josh Richardson and Dorian Finney-Smith all remained in Denver following contact tracing. All three players have been ruled out Saturday against the Orlando Magic, which is a huge blow to Dallas, as these players could be quarantined for a week. Tim Hardaway Jr., who has been coming off the bench after starting the season as a starter, would likely re-enter the starting lineup in place of Richardson. Maximilian Kleber, James Johnson and Josh Green will all likely help replace Finney-Smith's minutes. Luka Doncic will likely see all the minutes he can handle with Brunson out.--Dale Johnson - RotoBaller
