Dallas Mavericks Injury Report: Latest on Klay Thompson, Kyrie Irving's status as 8 players on injury list for game vs. Timberwolves (Jan. 22)

The Dallas Mavericks will take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in a regular season matchup on Wednesday. Ahead of the game, eight Mavericks players, including Klay Thompson, appear on the injury report, though Kyrie Irving is confirmed to play against Minnesota.

Thompson is listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain but did feature in the team’s previous game against the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday. Dereck Lively II is also questionable due to a right ankle sprain and is at risk of missing his fourth consecutive game.

Naji Marshall (illness) and Quentin Grimes (back spasms) are among the other players listed as questionable.

Meanwhile, Dwight Powell (right hip strain), Jaden Hardy (right ankle sprain), Luka Doncic (left calf strain) and Dante Exum (right wrist surgery) have been ruled out.

Jason Kidd’s squad has been severely impacted by injuries, which have influenced their results over the past 20-25 days. Reflecting on the team’s current situation, Kyrie Irving emphasized the importance of staying confident and making the most of the players who are available.

"The last 12 games haven’t been the best reflection of us, but we’re still working towards the same goals," Irving said. "We just need to do our best with who we have in the lineup now and continue to feed each other confidence."

The Mavericks have lost seven of their last 10 games and are currently ranked seventh in the Western Conference standings with a 23-20 record through 43 games.
