Returns to bench
Hardy isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Grizzlies, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports. Kyrie Irving will reclaim his starting spot from Hardy on Tuesday after missing Dallas' previous contest with a shoulder injury. Hardy is averaging 6.6 points, 1.8 assists and 1.7 rebounds in 17.5 minutes across his last 10 appearances coming off the bench.
Starting sans Irving on Sunday
Hardy will enter the starting five in Sunday's game against Portland, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports. With Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Klay Thompson (foot) sidelined, Hardy will get the start on the wing alongside Quentin Grimes. In his last five outings (one start), Hardy has averaged 8.0 points, 1.4 assists, 1.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 17.2 minutes per game.
Coming off bench in Grimes' return
Hardy will come off the bench for Wednesday's matchup against the Knicks. With Quentin Grimes returning from a one-game absence due to an illness, Hardy will shift back to a bench role. He still has some upside for a bigger role with Luka Doncic (wrist) sidelined, but he struggles with consistency.
Thrives in spot start Monday
Hardy amassed 23 points (8-18 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, two assists and three steals in 32 minutes during Monday's 129-119 win over the Hawks. Hardy got the start Monday due to the absence of Luka Doncic (wrist), Klay Thompson (foot) and Quentin Grimes (illness). Hardy is no Doncic by any means, but he made a pretty good impression of the star guard by reaching the 20-point threshold while delivering solid numbers in other categories. Hardy could remain in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Knicks as well, as Doncic is not expected to return until the Dec. 30 game against the Jazz at the earliest.
Draws spot start
Hardy is starting Monday's game against the Hawks, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports. Hardy will get the nod at point guard due to the absence of Luka Doncic (wrist). This marks Hardy's first start of the 2024-25 season. He's provided a spark off the bench at times this year, scoring in double figures in three of his last five appearances.
Nabs three steals Thursday
Hardy chipped in seven points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three steals, two rebounds and one assist over 22 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 loss to Utah. With Kyrie Irving (shoulder) sidelined Thursday, the 22-year-old Hardy saw an uptick in playing time and was able to tie Naji Marshall for the team high in steals. Hardy has seen a slight downturn in playing time compared to last season, and through 11 regular-season appearances in the 2024-25 campaign, he has averaged 3.8 points, 1.3 assists and 1.1 rebounds across 12.6 minutes per game. The guard has only played 20-plus minutes in two games thus far and is shooting only 34.9 percent from the field.
Provides spark off bench
Hardy notched 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt) and two assists in 13 minutes during Wednesday's 119-99 victory over Chicago. Hardy was Dallas' leading bench scorer during Wednesday's win. The 22-year-old guard is averaging 4.1 points in 10.9 minutes across seven appearances this season.
Signs three-year extension
Hardy and the Mavericks agreed to a three-year, $18 million contract extension Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Hardy has showcased immense upside in his first two seasons in the NBA, but he faces an uphill battle for consistent playing time. As long as Luka Doncic (calf), Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson are healthy, it'll be difficult for Hardy to provide quality fantasy production. However, if any of those players are sidelined for an extended period this season, Hardy would be a primary beneficiary.
Moves back to bench Thursday
Hardy isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Bucks. The Mavericks are starting Kyrie Irving and Quentin Grimes in the backcourt, so Hardy will return to the bench. That's the role he's expected to have when the 2024-25 regular season begins for Dallas, so Hardy isn't worth targeting in most drafts.
