Mavericks' Dante Exum (knee) downgraded, expected back Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum (knee) is out for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
What It Means:
Exum has been downgraded from doubtful for the first leg of the Mavericks' back-to-back, but he's expected to return from his lengthy absence for Wednesday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors. Jaden Hardy and Tim Hardaway Jr. could lose playing time once Exum is active.
numberFire's models project THJ for 28.1 minutes and 21.3 FanDuel points on Tuesday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Mavs' implied total (114.0) is No. 10 out of 18 teams on the Main slate.
