Maxi Kleber has been added to the list of Mavericks players in health and safety protocols, the team’s PR department tweets.
Kleber joins Reggie Bullock and Josh Green in COVID protocols. Willie Cauley-Stein (personal reasons) and Eugene Omoruyi (right foot injury) will also miss Tuesday’s game against the Timberwolves. Minnesota has five players in protocols.
Kristaps Porzingis (toe soreness) is questionable to play.
Kleber played 31 minutes against Minnesota on Sunday, contributing six points and 14 rebounds. He’s averaging 7.3 PPG and 5.9 RPG.
The Mavs have signed Theo Pinson and are planning to sign Marquese Chriss via the hardship exemption to fortify the roster. Dallas also has two assistant coaches, Jared Dudley and Darrell Armstrong, who have been placed in protocols.
