He also landed a second-round pick in this year’s draft.

So, Caleb was one of the players that we were able to get that would actually just barely fit under the first apron,” Harrison said. “We took that, and we knew what we were giving up. We knew we were only going to be able to sign one 10-day guy. But the chances of 10 players out of 18 available players being hurt, we took that risk to get a player of Caleb, who we’ve liked forever. And so we did it.”</p><p>Harrison says the deal taught him a valuable lesson.</p><p>“Absolutely, we did,” Harrison replied. “There are scenarios where you can have more than 10 players hurt, which doesn’t typically happen. So that will be something that we’ll keep in mind as we move forward.”</p><p>As for Doncic, Harrison says he’s ready to move on from talking about the deal, such as the former Mavericks All-Star, and is looking forward to the franchise’s new era.</p><p>“I feel the same way he does,” Harrison said. “I’ve actually never spoken ill of Luka at all, and I’m just ready to move on with this team that we have.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Nico Harrison reacts to Luka Doncic saying Harrison’s comments about him have been “sad”<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MFFL?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#MFFL</a> <a href="https://t.co/DKCbklKvxS">pic.twitter.com/DKCbklKvxS</a></p><p>— Joey Mistretta (@JoeyMistretta_) <a href="https://twitter.com/JoeyMistretta_/status/1914384595656827096?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 21, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><h2><b>Nico Harrison’s surprising take on Luka Doncic, Mavericks fans</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Mavericks-forward-Caleb-Martin-Mavericks-GM-Nico-Harrison.jpg"><figcaption>Petre Thomas-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Mavericks GM <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/dallas-mavericks/mavericks-news-nico-harrison-makes-shocking-admission-luka-doncic-dallas-fans">Nico Harrison addressed Luka Doncic’s trade impacted fans</a> in a manner he didn’t anticipate.

The defeat marked the Mavericks’ third straight loss, dropping them to 38-42 and placing further strain on their position in the Western Conference Play-In race.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/los-angeles-lakers/lakers-news-luka-doncic-jj-redick-super-human-mavericks">Doncic made a powerful statement in his return</a>, finishing with 45 points, eight rebounds, six assists, and four steals while shooting 16-for-28 from the field and seven-for-10 from three. The former franchise cornerstone looked dominant as he led the Lakers to their 49th win of the season, putting the Mavericks in a difficult position with just two regular season games remaining.</p><p>Adding to Dallas’ frustrations is a <a href="https://x.com/Boweman55/status/1910188554510094749">staggering statistic</a> spotlighted by Josh Bowe of Mavs Moneyball. Since the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/dallas-mavericks/mavericks-news-dallas-roasted-for-quentin-grimes-trade-76ers-revenge-game">Mavericks traded for Caleb Martin at the deadline</a>, the veteran forward has made just two three-pointers. Martin, who was acquired from the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Quentin Grimes, has struggled to find his rhythm in Dallas’ offense.</p><h2><b>Quentin Grimes’ breakout and Caleb Martin’s struggles highlight Mavericks’ trade deadline missteps</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Quentin-Grimes-5-drives-to-the-basket-as-Washington-Wizards-guard-Colby-Jones-1-defends.jpg"><figcaption>© Geoff Burke-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Meanwhile, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-jeff-teague-sparks-paul-george-vs-quentin-grimes-debate-eye-opening-take">Grimes has flourished with the 76ers</a>. In 27 games with Philadelphia, Grimes has knocked down 79 three-pointers while averaging 22.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.6 steals per game. He has been efficient as well, shooting 47.7% from the field and 38.9% from three-point range, providing the Sixers with consistent perimeter scoring and defensive intensity.</p><p>The contrast in production between Martin and Grimes has only amplified scrutiny of Dallas’ trade deadline decisions. Martin finished Wednesday’s game with nine points, three rebounds, two assists, and a steal on three-of-seven shooting. Though his effort was evident, his impact continues to pale in comparison to Grimes’ emergence in Philadelphia.</p><p>Anthony Davis, the Mavericks’ other headline acquisition from the Lakers in the Doncic trade, also struggled in his first game against his former team. Davis, who helped Los Angeles win the 2019-20 NBA title, posted 13 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, and a block while shooting five-for-13 from the field.</p><p>With their record now at 38-42, the Mavericks sit one game behind the Sacramento Kings (39-41) for the No. 9 seed in the West. Dallas will look to close the regular season strong with matchups against the Toronto Raptors (30-50) on Friday and the Memphis Grizzlies (47-32) on Sunday. Securing at least one win in their final two games will be essential if they hope to host a Play-In Tournament game.</p><p>As the regular season winds down, the lingering effects of the trade deadline loom large. While Doncic continues to elevate the Lakers, and Grimes thrives in Philadelphia, the Mavericks are left trying to salvage momentum—facing both standings pressure and intensified criticism of their recent front office moves.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Caleb Martin, who has yet to make his Mavs debut, is among the players on the injury report.</p><h2><b>Mavericks injury report</b></h2><p>Kyrie Irving (left knee sprain/ACL tear), Anthony Davis (left adductor strain), Daniel Gafford (right knee sprain), Jaden Hardy (right ankle sprain), Kai Jones (left quad strain), Dereck Lively II (right ankle stress fracture), Olivier-Maxence Prosper (right wrist sprain) and PJ Washington (right ankle sprain) are all listed as out for Friday’s game.</p><p>Martin (right hip strain) and Dante Exum (right foot contusion) are both questionable. The Mavs are certainly hopeful both players will be available amid the plethora of injuries on the roster.</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/mavericks-news-dallas-trade-caleb-martin-76ers">Mavericks acquired Martin</a> as part of a deal that sent Quentin Grimes to the Philadelphia 76ers before the NBA trade deadline. As mentioned, though, the 29-year-old has yet to appear in a game with the Mavs since the trade came to fruition. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/mavericks-news-caleb-martin-injury-upgrade-bucks">Martin was upgraded to doubtful</a> before ultimately being ruled out ahead of the Mavs’ 137-107 defeat against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday.</p><p>Here is everything we know about Caleb Martin’s injury status for Friday night’s game vs. the Grizzlies.</p><p><b><i>*Watch NBA games LIVE with fuboTV (</i></b><a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/nba/?irad=356361&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored"><b><i>Get Access | Save $30</i></b></a><i>)</i><b><i>*</i></b></p><h2><b>Caleb Martin’s injury status for Mavericks-Grizzlies game</b></h2><p>As of this story’s writing, Martin is still listed as questionable for the game. There seems to be a realistic opportunity of Martin playing, though.</p><p>He was upgraded to doubtful before Wednesday’s contest after previously consistently being ruled out. Although he did not play, the upgrade suggested he was on the right track.</p><p>Now that Martin has been upgraded once again, this time to questionable, he will likely make his debut on either Friday night or soon after.</p><h2><b>Grizzlies injury report</b></h2><p>The Grizzlies have five players listed on their injury report for Friday’s game.</p><p>Jaren Jackson Jr. (left ankle sprain), Yuki Kawamura (G League – Two Way) and Zyon Pullin (right patellar tendon surgery recovery) are all out. Meanwhile, Santi Aldama (right calf strain) and John Konchar (right knee soreness) are both listed as questionable.</p><p>The Grizzlies and Mavericks will go head-to-head at 7:30 PM EST.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Two-way wing Caleb Martin, who has been out due to a hip injury, has been <a href="https://x.com/JoeyMistretta_/status/1897079544613601372" rel="noopener">upgraded to doubtful</a> for Wednesday night’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks, according to Joey Mistretta of ClutchPoints.</p><p>Even though it’s still unlikely that Martin is ready to go on Wednesday night, this upgrade is still a positive sign that he could be back soon. He has not played for Dallas since being traded there in a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/mavericks-news-dallas-hit-with-harsh-reality-after-huge-game-by-quentin-grimes">deal that sent Quentin Grimes to the Philadelphia 76ers</a>.</p><p>The Mavericks need all the help that they can get at this point after yet another brutal injury blow. Injuries have defined the season in Dallas, dating all the way back to Luka Doncic’s calf strain on Christmas Day. Of course, Doncic is now gone, but the injuries have continued to pile up.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/mavericks-news-anthony-davis-may-shut-down-after-kyrie-irving-acl-tear">Anthony Davis got injured in his Mavericks debut</a> despite tearing up the court in his first two quarters in a Dallas uniform. Big men Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively are also out with injuries, while do-it-all forward PJ Washington is struggling with an ankle sprain.</p><p>Earlier on Tuesday, the biggest blow of them all was levied against the Mavericks. Star point guard <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/mavericks-kyrie-irving-delivers-emotional-ig-live-time-to-be-selfish">Kyrie Irving left Monday night’s loss</a> to the Sacramento Kings with what was initially described as a knee sprain, but was later revealed to be a torn ACL that will end his season and likely will bleed into next season.</p><p>The Mavericks are still scrapping to get into the play-in in the Western Conference, but it will be very difficult without essentially their five best players. Getting Martin back will help them add some versatility and two-way productivity, but it will still be an uphill battle for them with the amount of star power that they are missing.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
