Cisse notched six points (3-5 FG), seven rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal across 25 minutes during Friday's 120-100 loss to Boston.
EDGE Analysis
With Daniel Gafford (ankle) and Marvin Bagley (neck) sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back set, Cisse saw increased playing time and even logged more minutes than starter Dwight Powell (15 minutes). Cisse was fairly productive, grabbing seven boards and recording a game-high three blocks. The big man has just four games of eligibility left at the NBA level while on a two-way contract, so he isn't likely to suit up unless Gafford and Bagley both continue to miss time.

Cisse (two-way) was inactive for Tuesday's 117-90 loss to the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse had appeared in each of the Mavericks' previous three games and averaged 3.3 points and 8.3 rebounds in 13.7 minutes over that stretch, but Dallas opted to hold him out Tuesday in an effort to preserve his availability for the remainder of the season. Since the two-way center has already suited up for 45 games at the NBA level this season, he'll be eligible to play in just five of the team's remaining 21 contests unless the Mavericks upgrade him to a standard contract.

Cisse finished Sunday's 100-87 loss to Oklahoma City with zero points (0-1 FG) and 12 rebounds in 21 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse collected double-digit boards for the fifth time this year. The 23-year-old big man is a two-way player for the Mavericks and has a limited number of games he can be available at the NBA level, unless Dallas converts him to a standard deal at some point.

The Mavericks list Cisse (two-way) as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
The two-way player has been active for 42 games this season, and since he's eligible to suit up just eight more times at the NBA level before he would need to be converted to a standard deal, the Mavericks could be conservative with deploying him in the weeks to come. Cisse returned to the G League and made his first appearance for the Texas Legends since Jan. 6 in Friday's 115-105 loss to the Stockton Kings, finishing with 16 points (6-11 FG, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one block.

Cisse (G League - two-way) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse is no longer listed on the Mavericks' injury report with an illness, but he's not a lock to suit up Wednesday. He's on a two-way contract and has already been active for 38 games this season, so Cisse can suit up just 12 more times for the NBA club before Dallas would need to convert him to a standard deal in order for him to be eligible to play. Even if Cisse gets the green light to play, Daniel Gafford and Dwight Powell are still expected to see the bulk of the minutes at center.

Cisse (illness) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse is trending toward missing a second consecutive game while battling through an illness. His absence Sunday would leave Dwight Powell as the lone backup big man behind Daniel Gafford. Cisse has averaged 7.0 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.8 blocks over 16.8 minutes per game over his last six outings.

Cisse (illness) won't play in Saturday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse was downgraded from questionable to doubtful earlier Saturday, so his absence was expected. With Daniel Gafford (ankle) healthy, the Mavericks will have enough bodies to man the center position. Cisse's next chance to play will come Sunday at Milwaukee.

Cisse (illness) has been downgraded to doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse was initially listed as questionable Friday, but the downgrade in status suggests it wouldn't be surprising if he ends up being ruled out. If Cisse ends up being out, the Mavs would have to rely on Daniel Gafford (ankle) and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl as depth pieces at center with Dwight Powell expected to remain the starter.

Cisse (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Cisse is still under the weather, though he was cleared to play in Thursday's win over Golden State. However, he logged just six minutes in that contest, and with Daniel Gafford (ankle) expected to return from a four-game absence, Cisse isn't guaranteed to see meaningful playing time.

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.
