[Stein] Barring a late setback, Mavericks F Maxi Kleber (shoulder separation) is indeed on course to make his return to the lineup tonight in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals after being sidelined since May 3, league sources tell @TheSteinLine.

Kleber time!
He’s not on the injury list, at least on theScore app. Luka still listed as a GTD though. Kinda worrying but he said in that interview that if he can play, he’ll play
Perfect timing with Lively out
Lets go!
Mavs in 4. Let’s get everyone rested for the final
Amazing news!
Amazing. If Minny wanted to unleash more of Naz to switch Gafford out of the paint, welcome to MaxiWorld.
Watch him suddenly start catching the lobs lively was getting
Yay!
It’s hilarious that there’s so much talk of Minesota needing to go small with either KAT or Gobert dropping from the starting lineup……just in time for Kleber who has been our antidote for teams going small to come back.
That’s amazing but maxi better not do anything crazy like he did last time to get injured. Mavs 100% need him and can’t be reckless
Will be more needed vs Boston more than anything
Could not come any sooner!
It’s Kleberin’ Time!
I’m getting irrational in here.
game winner Maxi incoming?!
Welcome back, brooo!!
Would be huge with lively out. Missing the rim presence, but makes up for it at the 3 point line.
Looking forward to Maxi being back! My only concern is he might be a bit rusty, but having him on the floor at all will be huge especially with Lively’s absence.
Rudy Gobert defending a 5 out offense ran by Lukai is going to be fun to watch.
Good news, good timing. He doesn’t replace Lively obviously but if he can come in and play like he was against the Clippers he’ll make not having Lively quite a bit easier and let the Mavs give the Wolves a different look they haven’t seen yet. Nice flexibility. And obviously we want that flexibility if we get to the Finals.
