The Dallas Mavericks will attempt to defeat the Houston Rockets on Saturday night without Klay Thompson on the floor.

Thompson, who has recently been linked to a potential trade away from Dallas, was out of action in the Mavs’ last game due to an ankle injury. On Thursday, the team made an announcement about his status ahead of Friday’s game against the Brooklyn Nets.

With rumors of several teams showing interest in James Harden, one specific suitor has taken the lead, and the Clippers must stand firm on their desired return.

Klay Thompson and Anthony Davis headline the Dallas Mavericks’ injury report for their game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Both the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Clippers may be without multiple key players in Saturday night's matchup.
