Dallas sports teams face significant injury concerns

Major Dallas sports franchises face significant injury concerns heading into their upcoming seasons. For the Dallas Cowboys, the health of quarterback Dak Prescott remains a primary concern. Over the last seven seasons, Prescott has frequently missed time, including two instances of season-ending injuries. Additionally, the team faces instability at the offensive tackle positions, with concerns surrounding Tyler Guyton and Terence Steele.

In professional basketball, Dirk Nowitzki has identified the health of Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II as a critical factor for the team's success. Lively has struggled with recurring foot issues, including a misdiagnosed stress fracture and multiple surgeries on the same foot. His ability to remain active and healthy is seen as vital to the Mavericks' defensive capabilities.
