3 years agoDallas Mavericks point/shooting guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) has been cleared to suit up for Friday's contest against Houston. Ntilikina has played just eight minutes across the Mavs' past eight outings. It's unclear if the 23-year-old will face any kind of minutes cap in his return, but he could be utilized with elevated frequency due to the absence of Jalen Brunson (thigh) and Dorian Finney-Smith (arm). While Ntilikina enjoyed a five-game stretch among the starting five at the conclusion of 2021, he has not scored in double figures since Christmas Day.--Jesse Borek
