On Wednesday evening, the Dallas Mavericks will host the New York Knicks in Texas.

For the game, the Mavs could be without one of their best players, as Klay Thompson is on the injury report.

He also missed the team's last game, so this would be his second straight out of action (if he doesn't play).

Via Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday: "The #Mavs list Klay Thompson (left foot plantar fascia), Dereck Lively II (illness) and Quentin Grimes (illness) as questionable for tomorrow’s game against the #Knicks."
