The Dallas Mavericks have been forced to lose one of their key players, Dereck Lively II, who is certain to be sidelined for quite some time in the 2025-2026 NBA season due to swelling and discomfort in his right foot.
The NBA website reported Wednesday that the medical team stated that information on how long the center's recovery process would take would not be announced until the next 7-10 days.
As a result, Lively is certain to miss at least the next three matches and possibly longer, given the 21-year-old's injury history.
