2024 Fantasy Outlook
After four years with the Pelicans, Marshall signed a three-year deal with the Mavericks and will likely be a key bench piece. He ended the 2023-24 season as the 266th-ranked player, averaging 7.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 0.9 three-pointers in 19.0 minutes per game. He should see a similar role in Dallas, albeit with the potential to play slightly more on a nightly basis. He is a great plug-and-play option for the Mavericks, with the ability to fill several roles on both ends of the floor. However, as we have seen throughout his career, that is unlikely to translate into sustainable fantasy value. With that said, an opportunity could present itself at some point during the season, if and when injuries befall those ahead of him in the rotation. Marshall is not worth drafting in standard formats but is worth adding to your potential streamers list. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $27 million contract with the Mavericks in July of 2024. 
Makes defensive impact in loss
Marshall supplied 13 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals across 34 minutes during Friday's 120-106 Play-In Game loss to the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Marshall's season-high three blocks weren't enough to help Dallas avoid elimination from playoff contention. After spending the first four seasons of his career in New Orleans, the 27-year-old forward enjoyed a breakout campaign in 2024-25 with the Mavericks. Across Marshall's 69 regular-season appearances, including 31 starts, he averaged 13.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 10 steals in 27.8 minutes.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
Despite playing a limited role, Marshall will return to New Orleans, likely playing as a somewhat key piece in their rotation. During the 2022-23 season, he averaged a career-high 9.1 points per game, adding 3.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.7 steals in 23.3 minutes. As a result of injuries to other players, Marshall even started a handful of games and didn't look out of place when doing so. In 21 starts, he compiled 14.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.4 three-pointers in 33.3 minutes per game. He has been able to establish himself as a regular, although he would likely need others to go down for him to have any chance at playing more than about 20 minutes per night. While he isn't worth drafting in standard leagues, he is worth keeping an eye on as a potential streaming consideration.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Viewed as defensive stopper
The Mavericks envision Marshall as a defensive stopper in the same role Derrick Jones had in 2023-24, writes Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News.
ANALYSIS
Marshall will see steady minutes off the bench as a backup at the small forward role behind Klay Thompson, and while he might thrive on the defensive end, don't be surprised if he also provides a lift on offense with his three-point shooting. In fact, Thompson was raving about Marshall's shot-making after the first day of camp. "Naji played incredible," Thompson said. "The guy was making floaters, pull-ups. I thought he played really well. I was impressed with Naji. He scored a couple of times on me. His jumper was fluid and his mid-range was nice." Marshall averaged 7.1 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 19.0 minutes per game across 66 regular-season appearances in 2023-24.
