Maxi Kleber unavailable until further notice

Injured this week in training, Maxi Kleber should join the Dallas infirmary for a while. The German interior tore his right hamstring. Big blow for Dallas!

The tile, quite simply! Part of Jason Kidd’s group, Maxi Kleber should remain on the sidelines for an indefinite period. What’s fault ? A hamstring tear that occurred this Tuesday at Mavs practice tells us Tim MacMahonESPN. The franchise did not wish to give a return date in its official press release. The question arises in particular whether the player would be operated on or not.

Maxi Kleber this season what is it? 6.2 points, 3.5 rebounds in 26 minutes with the second Texan unit but he is above all a duty player, experienced, one of the oldest in the locker room (only Finney-Smith and Dwight Powell have more seniority in Dallas), who gives his all in defense and who can drop big shots from the parking lot to unlock a complicated situation. He is also often present on the field at the end of the match to tip the decision in favor of the Mavs. It is clearly a thorn in the side of Jason Kidd, who will have to review his rotations knowing that it is not Christian Wood who will fill the gaps behind instead of the German, far from it. This season, Dallas has a record of 1 win and 5 losses when Dirk’s compatriot is absent.

Maxi Kleber joins the infirmary for an indefinite period and it is Dallas who loses one of its most precious soldiers. Really not good news for the Mavs…
