- Pregame, the Dallas Mavericks will evaluate Cooper Flagg in pregame warmups and decide his status; if unavailable, Caleb Martin will likely start, complicating Jason Kidd, head coach's rotation before the February 5 trade deadline.
- With Knicks' injury issues, Cooper Flagg's absence has complicated the Dallas Mavericks' rotation, while New York's 2-8 stretch predates the Monday returns of Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart at Madison Square Garden.
