On Tuesday evening, the Dallas Mavericks will play the Memphis Grizzlies at home in Texas.

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

The four-time NBA Champion has missed each of the previous four games, so this would be his fifth straight out of the lineup (if he doesn't play).

Via Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News on Monday: "Klay Thompson (left foot plantar fascia) and Dereck Lively II (right knee hyperextension) have been upgraded to questionable for tomorrow's NBA Cup game against the #Grizzlies.

Naji Marshall (illness) remains out."
