Won't return Wednesday
Gafford has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against Denver due to a right ankle sprain.
Analisi
Gafford missed Dallas' most recent game due to the same injury, and he seemingly aggravated the issue Wednesday. He logged six points (2-2 FG, 2-4 FT) and 10 rebounds across 18 minutes before exiting. Gafford's absence will likely mean more opportunities for Dwight Powell. His next chance to play will come Thursday against Utah.

Not on injury report
Gafford (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against Denver.
Analisi
Gafford will return from a one-game absence due to a sprained right ankle. The 27-year-old will likely take his spot in the starting lineup back from Dwight Powell. In 19 starts this season, Gafford is averaging 9.2 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 23.1 minutes.

Out with ankle sprain
Gafford won't play in Monday's game against the Nets due to a sprained right ankle, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Analisi
The Mavericks made Gafford a late addition to the injury report, which was an omen that his status was in serious jeopardy Monday. Dallas is now down its top three big men, with Anthony Davis (finger) and Dereck Lively (foot) out, which leaves the team with Moussa Cisse (shoulder), who's likely to play, and Dwight Powell to split the minutes at center.

Questionable for Monday
Gafford (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Nets.
Analisi
Gafford was a late addition to the injury report, and that's usually a bad sign in fantasy hoops. If Gafford is unable to give it a go, the Mavericks could lean heavily on Moussa Cisse (shoulder).

Modest production in start
Gafford ended with six points (2-6 FG, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds and one block across 25 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 loss to Chicago.
Analisi
Gafford started at center, a role he is likely to fill for the foreseeable future. However, that's really where the good news ends, as he finished with yet another underwhelming fantasy line. While he should probably be considered a must-roster player, he is certainly not going to be suitable for everyone. Moussa Cisse was a far better option in this one, logging 19 minutes off the bench. If Dallas opts to pack things in for the season at some point, it's possible Cisse moves ahead of Gafford.
