The San Antonio Spurs enter their home matchup against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday, April 10, at Frost Bank Center with a 61–19 record, sitting second in the Western Conference at .763. Dallas arrives at 25–55, ranked 13th in the West at .313.
The meeting is set in San Antonio, where the Spurs hold a strong home record of 31–7. The Mavericks, meanwhile, continue a road-heavy stretch late in the season while managing a lengthy injury report that impacts rotation stability.
Dallas lists multiple key contributors on the injury report. Cooper Flagg is probable with a left wrist sprain, while P.J. Washington remains doubtful with a left elbow sprain. Naji Marshall is also doubtful due to a left hip contusion, and Caleb Martin is doubtful with a right plantar fascia strain. Daniel Gafford is doubtful due to rest, adding uncertainty in the frontcourt.
Additional availability concerns include Brandon Williams, who is doubtful with illness, and Moussa Cisse and John Poulakidas, both probable on two-way assignments. Tyler Smith is also probable on a two-way deal. Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively II remain out long-term due to surgery.
San Antonio’s injury report is centered on its top-end talent. Victor Wembanyama is questionable with a left rib contusion, while Stephon Castle is questionable due to left foot soreness. Harrison Ingram is also questionable under a two-way designation, adding depth uncertainty in the backcourt rotation.
The Spurs also list David Jones Garcia out following right ankle surgery and Emanuel Miller out on a two-way assignment. San Antonio’s status around Wembanyama is particularly significant given his 24.8 points and 11.5 rebounds per game production this season.
Recent form adds context to availability concerns. Dallas is coming off consecutive road losses to Phoenix and the LA Clippers, while San Antonio has won back-to-back home games against Portland and Philadelphia. The Spurs also hold a 3–0 season series edge, having defeated Dallas twice at home and once on the road.
