Available to play
Gafford (shoulder) will be available to play Thursday against Boston.
Analisi
Gafford exited Tuesday's 118-116 loss to the 76ers with a stinger in his left shoulder, but he brushed off any concerns about it at Wednesday's practice. He's also not showing up at all on the injury report which is a good sign for his fantasy managers. Anthony Davis (abdomen) is questionable for Thursday, so there could be another game until we see how the frontcourt rotation shapes up.

Goes through practice
Gafford (shoulder) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Analisi
Gafford exited Tuesday's 118-116 loss to the 76ers with a left shoulder injury, which the center described as a "stinger" after Wednesday's practice. The Mavericks will release their next injury report later Wednesday, but Gafford seems optimistic about playing Thursday against the Celtics.

Downplays injury after early exit
Gafford said that he expects to be available for the Mavericks' next game Thursday in Boston after exiting with 3:20 in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 118-116 loss to the 76ers with a left shoulder injury, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analisi
Gafford noted that the injury stemmed from him getting hit in the head, resulting in his neck jamming up before his left shoulder started to feel numb. The center said he could have played through the injury, but he remained on the bench for the closing minutes and finished with 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two blocks in 33 minutes. While Gafford's comments about his injury are encouraging, his status will still need to be monitored leading up to Thursday. The Mavericks may have the recently acquired Anthony Davis (abdomen) available to make his team debut Thursday, and his presence could result in Gafford losing out on some playing time after he logged 30-plus minutes in seven of his last 10 appearances.

Exits early Tuesday
Gafford exited with 3:20 remaining in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 118-116 loss to the 76ers and headed to the locker room after sustaining an apparent left shoulder injury, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Analisi
Gafford finished with 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two blocks across 33 minutes. The severity of the injury is unknown, but Anthony Davis (abdomen) and Kylor Kelley are candidates to start at center if Gafford is unable to play in the Mavericks' next game Thursday against the Celtics.

Not on injury report for Tuesday
Gafford (ankle) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Analisi
Gafford will suit up Tuesday after missing Sunday's loss to the Cavaliers due to left ankle soreness. The big man could share the frontcourt with Anthony Davis (recently traded) for the first time Tuesday, who is listed as questionable to make his Mavericks debut against Philadelphia. Over his last five appearances, Gafford has averaged 17.4 points, 10.0 rebounds, 3.6 blocks and 2.6 assists in 29.4 minutes per contest.

Won't play Sunday
Gafford (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Analisi
Following the aftermath of the Luka Doncic (calf) for Anthony Davis (abdomen) blockbuster trade, the Mavericks have ruled out Gafford, Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and P.J. Washington (knee) for Sunday's game against the top team in the NBA, leaving Dallas with a frontcourt rotation of Naji Marshall, Kessler Edwards, Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Kylor Kelley. Gafford's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday in Philadelphia. When Davis is available to make his Dallas debut and Gafford is healthy, head coach Jason Kidd expects both big men to start, especially while Dereck Lively (foot) is still sidelined.

Questionable against Cleveland
Gafford (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analisi
After a strong performance in Friday's win against the Pistons, Gafford may not play in Sunday's game in Cleveland due to left ankle soreness. The 26-year-old big man recorded a double-double in Detroit, finishing with 16 points, 10 rebounds, three assists and five blocks. The Mavericks are already shorthanded in the frontcourt with Dereck Lively (ankle) and Maxi Kleber (foot) out for a considerable amount of time, which means they could lean on P.J. Washington or Kylor Kelley to help shoulder the load in the paint.

Keeps surging with five swats
Gafford posted 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and five blocks over 33 minutes during Friday's 117-102 loss to Detroit.
Analisi
Gafford was a menace down low Friday, recording his fifth game of the season with at least five swats to go with his eighth double-double of the year. The veteran big man's fantasy stock continues to skyrocket through his last seven appearances, where he's averaged 18.9 points, 11.0 rebounds, 4.0 blocks and 2.6 assists in 30.4 minutes per game while shooting 70.3 percent from the field. With Dallas' frontcourt ravaged by injuries, Gafford has a clear pathway to dominating the center minutes going forward.
