Jazz coach Quin Snyder on the #Mavs: “They’re really good, obviously. The way they’re playing right now, they’re as good as anybody in the NBA, and that’s obvious. You can point to what Luka (Doncic) does. It’s special the way that he scores, rebounds and play makes.” pic.twitter.com/xMOfXAenNC – 7:47 PM

Rudy Gobert remains a game-time decision, per Quin Snyder. Meanwhile, Luka Doncic is good to go after missing Saturday’s game. – 7:20 PM

Injury updates from the Mavs for tonight’s big game vs Utah. Luka who missed Saturday w/ a toe sprain is probable, so is Maxi Kleber who was out the last 2 w/ a sore right ankle. Jalen Brunson is out (R foot contusion) & so is Frank Ntilikina (non-Covid illness). 730p tip, BSSW – 12:36 PM

All signs point to Luka Dončić (left toe sprain) playing tonight for Dallas after a one-game absence but the Mavericks now list fellow starter Jalen Brunson (right foot contusion) as out for the home date with Utah.
