Cisse (illness) has been cleared to play Friday night against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse carried a probable tag leading up to Thursday's matchup due to an illness, and he's officially been given the green light to take the court. He's averaging 8.2 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.0 blocks in his last five games, all off the bench.

Cisse (illness) is probable for Thursday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse was previously labeled as questionable, so he's trending in the right direction. With Daniel Gafford (ankle) now considered doubtful, Cisse is likely to absorb a handful of backup center minutes behind Dwight Powell on Thursday.

Cisse is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Golden State.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse is feeling under the weather, and he's at risk of missing Thursday's contest. Daniel Gafford (ankle) is also considered questionable, so Dallas' frontcourt could be a bit thin.

Cisse had 15 points (5-6 FG, 5-8 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, four blocks and one steal in 20 minutes during Monday's 114-97 victory over New York.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse turned in the best performance of his young career, falling one rebound short of his first double-double while also matching his career high in blocks. With Daniel Gafford continuing to deal with ankle issues, Cisse has made the most of his limited opportunities over the past two weeks. In five games during that span, he has put up top-90 value in standard leagues, averaging 8.2 points on 76.2 percent shooting from the field, adding 9.6 blocks and 2.0 blocks in just 19.2 minutes per contest. It's tough to label him a must-roster player, but managers will want to keep a close eye on him as we approach the silly season.

Cisse (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse was initially listed as questionable due to a right shoulder sprain, though he was eventually upgraded to probable and has now officially been cleared to suit up. The Mavericks will be without Anthony Davis (finger), P.J. Washington (ankle) and Daniel Gafford (ankle), so Cisse and Dwight Powell will likely split the center minutes against Brooklyn.

Cisse (shoulder) is now listed as probable for Monday's game against the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse is trending in the right direction after initially being listed as questionable Monday due to a right shoulder sprain. The team should have official word on his availability closer to tipoff.

Cisse (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

With Anthony Davis (hand) sidelined indefinitely, Cisse served as the Mavericks' backup center behind Daniel Gafford during Saturday's loss against the Bulls. Cisse may have sprained his right shoulder during that contest, and if he's unable to play Monday, then Dwight Powell would be in line for more minutes off the bench.

Cisse notched five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three blocks and two steals across 19 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 loss to Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse chipped in on both ends of the floor, matching his season high with 10 rebounds while also setting a season high with five combined steals and blocks. With Anthony Davis (finger) likely to be sidelined beyond the All-Star break, Cisse could have an opportunity to play meaningful minutes, especially if Daniel Gafford continues to struggle as the starter. While he isn't worth adding just yet, Cisse is someone to keep an eye on, just in case the coaching staff decides to give him a larger role at some point down the stretch.

Cisse finished Saturday's 113-107 loss to the Kings with two rebounds in six minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse played his first game since Dec. 15, moving into the rotation following a groin injury to Anthony Davis. Although Cisse has been thereabouts thus far this season, he has yet to carve out a consistent role. If and when the Mavericks opt to change things up, keep an eye on Cisse, just in case he shifts into a meaningful role, much like Adem Bona did for the 76ers last season.

Cisse isn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

Cisse entered the starting five Monday with Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively sidelined. However, both Lively and Gafford are available Wednesday, resulting in Cisse's move to the bench. He's averaging 4.9 points and 4.0 rebounds over nine games in a bench role this season.
