Nerlens Noel (knee) questionable Monday for Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Nerlens Noel (left knee soreness) is questionable for Monday's game versus the Toronto Raptors.

What It Means:

Noel has missed two straight games, but he sounded optimistic about his return over the weekend. Salah Mejri would see a boost if Noel can't make it back on the court Monday night.

Noel is averaging 11.3 points, 8.8 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 22.6 minutes per game this month (four contests). His 2.9 nERD is second on the Mavericks and tied for 61st in the NBA.
