Will play Tuesday
Gafford (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Nets.
Analyse
Gafford has been a mainstay on the injury report of late due to a right ankle injury but will shed his questionable tag and suit up Tuesday. The big man has started 10 consecutive games for Dallas, averaging 9.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.2 combined steals-plus-blocks and 1.3 assists in 24.1 minutes per tilt over that stretch.

Listed as questionable for Tuesday
Gafford (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Brooklyn.
Analyse
Gafford has been a regular on the injury report of late due to a right ankle issue, though he's suited up in each of Dallas' past 11 games. The Arkansas product has started the previous 10 contests and would be expected to retain that role if active, with Marvin Bagley and Dwight Powell candidates to step into the starting five should Gafford be ruled out.
22 februari 2026
Available to play
Gafford (ankle) is available for Sunday's game in Indiana.
Analyse
Gafford was able to get through his pregame routine without issue, so he'll continue to power through the ankle issue. With Gafford active, Dwight Powell could have a tough time getting into the rotation.

Managing ankle injury
Gafford is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Pacers due to right ankle injury management.
Analyse
Gafford has been managing a right ankle injury since mid-January and is in jeopardy of missing Sunday's game. Marvin Bagley would be the top candidate to start at center and Dwight Powell would have an elevated role off the bench if Gafford is unable to play. Gafford has averaged 8.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.5 blocks over 23.5 minutes per game over his last 10 outings.

Swats two shots in loss
Gafford (ankle) closed with eight points (4-7 FG), five rebounds, two blocks, two steals and one assist across 24 minutes in Friday's 122-111 loss to the Timberwolves.
Analyse
After leaving the Mavericks' final game prior to the All-Star break Feb. 12 against the Lakers due to right ankle soreness, Gafford carried a questionable tag into Friday's contest but was cleared to play ahead of the opening tip. He came through with a serviceable two-way performance and is now averaging 8.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, 1.2 assists and 0.8 steals in 23.5 minutes per contest while appearing in each of the last 10 games. While his ceiling is limited, Gafford looks worthy of a roster spot in most fantasy leagues, specifically for managers looking for aid in the rebounds, blocks and field-goal percentage categories.
20 februari 2026
Available to play
Gafford (ankle) is available for Friday's game in Minnesota.
Analyse
Gafford will push through the pain and make himself available for Friday's game, so make sure you've got him active. Through five February outings, Gafford has recorded averages of 8.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.0 blocks per game.

Game-time call for Friday
Gafford (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analyse
Gafford picked up a right ankle injury in his team's final matchup before the All-Star break against the Lakers, and the issue could cause him to miss additional game action. The team should have a better idea of his availability closer to tipoff.
