The Mavs have added Boban and Brandon Knight to the list of players out tonight due to health and safety protocols…along w/ Luka, Hardaway, Kleber, Burke, and Jaqouri McLaughlin. Extremely bummed out for Knight who just had an impressive 18-point effort Monday in his 3rd game. – 5:03 PM Chuck Cooperstein @coopmavs
Gonna be a weird night as Mavs play in SAC, w/1 emergency backup PG (Isaiah Thomas) replacing another (Brandon Knight). As Ive been put on the shelf, Mavs Spanish voice Victor Villalba (whose baritone I’d kill for) fills in w/Brad. @PeasRadio pre at 9. Tip at 9:40 @theeagledallas3:24 PM Tim MacMahon @espn_macmahon

Brandon Knight hopes to stay with Mavs past 10-day contract: “Whatever they need from me, whether it’s coming off the bench, not playing at all, cheering, getting water, I’m here for it.”

Brandon Knight on signing with the Mavs as a COVID replacement, and taking advantage of this run this week: “When I got off the phone with my agent, I literally cried. Just thankful to get this chance.” – 1:26 AM Eddie Sefko @ESefko
Strange to think that the six new Mavericks signed via COVID hardship 10-days still have not met Luka Doncic. That group was led by Brandon Knight with 18 points, five assists tonight in the 132-117 thumping of Portland. – 12:40 AM Tim Cato @tim_cato
sacagawea didn’t discover oregon for the trail blazers to let brandon knight’s mavericks humble them in the first half like this – 11:14 PM Sean Highkin @highkin
Dame just bear hugged Brandon Knight going for a steal and looked at the ref incredulously when he was called for a foul. – 10:38 PM Sean Highkin @highkin
Brandon Knight is an absolutely elite Guy being Remembered on the Mavs’ COVID roster. – 10:28 PM
