Remains out Sunday
Kleber (hamstring) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Magic.
Analysis
Kleber will miss his fourth straight contest Sunday due to a right hamstring strain. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Indiana.

Timeline for return remains unclear
Head coach Jason Kidd stated Kleber (hamstring) is doing well in his recovery but wouldn't speak on whether the center would return during the team's current homestand, Noah Weber of The Smoking Cuban reports.
Analysis
The Mavs have four more games after Thursday on the current homestand, so the fact that Kidd is unwilling to commit to a return during that time likely means Kleber will miss at least a few more contests. Dereck Lively and Dwight Powell should handle the majority of the backup center minutes until Kleber returns.

Won't play Thursday
Kleber (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Houston.
Analysis
Kleber will be sidelined for a third consecutive game due to a right hamstring strain. Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively will continue starring at the center position, although Kleber's ongoing absence removes the element of long-distance shooting from the Mavericks' center position.

Won't travel for Tuesday's game
Coach Jason Kidd said Monday that Kleber (hamstring) will not travel with the team for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis
Kleber is dealing with a right hamstring injury that will hold him out of both Monday and Tuesday's games. However, Kidd said the injury is not expected to be a long-term setback for the big man. The 32-year-old's next opportunity to feature will come Thursday against the Rockets in Dallas.

Downgraded to out
Kleber (hamstring) will not play Monday against the Jazz, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Analysis
This isn't a surprise after Kleber was absent from the morning shootaround. It remains to be seen if Kleber will be available Tuesday against the Timberwolves. Naji Marshall is a candidate to see more minutes with Kleber sidelined against Utah.

Unable to practice
Kleber (hamstring) was not present at Monday's morning shootaround, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Analysis
Kleber left Saturday's loss to the Suns due to a right hamstring injury, and based on this latest update, he could be set to miss his first game of the campaign. If Kleber is held out, Naji Marshall could potentially soak up a handful of minutes.
27 October 2024
Iffy for Monday
Kleber (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against the Jazz.
Analysis
Kleber left Saturday's loss to the Suns due to a right hamstring injury and may miss his first game of the season Monday. If he's downgraded to out, Naji Marshall is a candidate for increased minutes, while Olivier-Maxence Prosper or Dwight Powell could enter the rotation as well.
27 October 2024
Won't return Saturday
Kleber won't return to Saturday's game against the Suns due to a right hamstring injury, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis
Kleber posted two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists and one rebound in 16 minutes prior to departing. Though the 32-year-old remains part of Dallas' rotation to open the 2024-25 season, he'll likely have a tough time surpassing 20 minutes in most games while all of Daniel Gafford, Dereck Lively and P.J. Washington are available in the frontcourt. Kleber can be viewed as day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Jazz.
