Dirk Nowitzki (Achilles) will be a game-time decision for Dallas on Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dirk Nowitzki (Achilles) will be a game-time decision against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday.
What It Means:
Nowitzki missed Tuesday's game with the injury, and with Dallas not having a shootaround scheduled on Wednesday morning, we won't likely have news on his status until much closer to tip-off. Look for Nerlens Noel to play some big minutes if Dirk can't go.
Accounting for Nowitzki sitting tonight, numberFire's models project Noel for 9.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.1 blocks in 21.0 minutes of action against the Clippers.
