Rotowire
Marshall (illness) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

He has started each of the Mavericks' last 10 games, and over that span, he has averaged 18.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.1 threes and 1.3 steals over 30.8 minutes per game.

Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Big night on defense Friday
Rotowire
Marshall posted 19 points (7-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, three assists and five steals over 33 minutes during Friday's 100-93 victory over the Trail Blazers.
The five steals were a career high for Marshall, and he's scored at least 16 points in seven of the last eight games. During that stretch, the 28-year-old forward is averaging 20.4 points, 4.8 boards, 4.8 steals, 1.4 steals and 1.1 threes, and as long as he stays healthy he should retain a significant role in the rotation for the injury-depleted Mavs.

Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Leads Dallas in scoring Saturday
Rotowire
Marshall finished with 28 points (11-23 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Saturday's 138-131 overtime loss to the Clippers.
Marshall struggled from deep, but he scored 19 of his team-high 28 points during the second half and overtime and was the only Mavericks player to score 20-plus points in Saturday's loss. The sixth-year pro has scored at least 25 points in three of his last four outings and has connected on 47.8 percent of his field-goal attempts over that span. Marshall is averaging a career-high 15.3 points per game this season along with 4.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.9 threes and 1.0 steals over 29.6 minutes per game.

Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Stays hot in loss
Rotowire
Marshall totaled 32 points (12-24 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds and seven assists in 33 minutes during Monday's 129-111 loss to New Orleans.
Marshall certainly did his part in this one by leading the Mavs in scoring while finishing second on his club in both rebounds and assists. It's fair to categorize this two-day stretch as a major success for the Xavier product, who cruised to a 25-point showing Sunday against Cleveland. Marshall was averaging 10.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists in his first six games of March heading into this back-to-back set, so it's reassuring to see him find his groove, especially while playing alongside other key contributors such as Cooper Flagg and P.J. Washington.

Rotowire
Marshall amassed 25 points (8-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 8-8 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Sunday's 130-120 victory over Cleveland.
Marshall contributed to the Mavericks' one-point halftime lead by scoring 16 points through the first two quarters, and he finished as the team's second-leading scorer behind Cooper Flagg (27 points). Sunday was Marshall's seventh 25-plus-point performance of the season, and the fourth time he connected on at least eight free throws. Since the new year, the sixth-year forward has averaged 16.9 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.8 threes and 1.0 steals over 30.5 minutes per game.

Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Scores 17 points with seven boards
Rotowire
Marshall produced 17 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-4 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Friday's 138-105 loss to the Cavaliers.
This was a nice bounce-back performance from Marshall, who was held to just five points on 2-for-7 shooting his last time out. Marshall continues to alternate double-digit scoring games with single-digit stinkers, which makes him a tough guy to roster in standard fantasy leagues.

Rotowire
Marshall (finger) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Questionable for Sunday
Rotowire
Marshall (finger) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder.
Marshall appears to have picked up a right finger contusion in Friday's loss to the Grizzlies, during which he posted four points, two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 24 minutes. The Mavericks are already shorthanded with Cooper Flagg (foot) and P.J. Washington (ankle) dealing with injuries, so Marshall's availability will be key for the Dallas frontcourt.

Rotowire
Marshall logged 36 points (14-23 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-11 FT), 10 rebounds and six assists across 42 minutes during Thursday's 130-121 loss to the Kings.
Marshall put the Mavericks on his shoulders Thursday evening, but his strong scoring effort wasn't enough to secure a victory. The 28-year-old was heavily featured due to the absences of Cooper Flagg (foot), P.J. Washington (ankle) and Daniel Gafford (ankle). Marshall set season highs in minutes and points, and he also secured his first double-double since Jan. 24.
