Max Christie was limited at Mavericks practice with a sore foot. "He's here shooting and doing stuff, but yeah, he wasn't full go," Dusty May said. Morez Johnson Jr. had a good practice, though May said "I can't imagine he's going to be able to play a full 48."
After a camp of minor issues, Morez Johnson Jr. said he knocked off rust in Dallas's Oct. 16 game: "I didn't feel like I was in great rhythm ... but I'll get there soon." Used heavily at center, he said it feels like power forward since he still switches onto everyone.
