The Mavericks are currently facing a series of significant injuries that have severely impacted their roster and playoff aspirations. And ESPN’s Bobby Marks says, per NBA rules, the Mavs could be forced to start forfeiting games soon if the injuries continue to pile on.

The Dallas Mavericks are entering the danger zone. The injury-riddled Mavericks left Friday’s game in Houston with just seven healthy players after veteran guard Dante Exum suffered a season-ending left-hand fracture.

The Dallas Mavericks could be in danger of forfeiting their games after the team is perilously close to having fewer than eight players available to play on any given night

Once slated as one of the NBA's premier matchups, Mavericks-76ers had a completely different feel Sunday. Both teams dressed a combined 18 players.

After a seven-game absence due to injury, Mavericks forward P.J. Washington shook off the rust and locked in, scoring 20 points in the first half of the game against the Philadelphia 76ers, including a white-hot first quarter where he scored 14 points on 5-for-6 from the field and 4-for-4 from the free-throw line.

The Dallas Mavericks' injury curse has been ruthless this season, and another key player went down on Friday night.
