Samuel Dalembert played well in his start against the Pelicans on Friday with nine points, eight boards, one assist and three blocks in 18 minutes. The Mavericks couldn't really have asked for much more out of Dalembert. He was terrific on defense and had one of his better offensive games in a while. His added opportunity tonight probably had a lot to do with the Mavericks being short-handed, so there's little reason to pick him up in most formats.
