Christie took another step forward in his first full season with Dallas and fourth overall in The Association, establishing himself as a dependable two-way wing while continuing to expand his offensive game. He emerged as a full-time starter over prolonged stretches of the 2025-26 season and, in the end, was part of the first unit in 68 of his 77 regular-season appearances. Entering his fifth NBA season, Christie appears firmly entrenched as part of the Mavericks' long-term core. His combination of three-point shooting, perimeter defense and positional versatility gives him a solid fantasy foundation, although he still isn't a high-usage offensive player. Continued improvement as a secondary creator could unlock another level of fantasy value, particularly if his assist totals continue to climb. Christie projects as an intriguing late-round target with room to outperform his draft slot should his offensive responsibilities expand, but he's better suited for deeper leagues. As a player with an uncertain offensive role in a rebuilding team that already has an established scoring duo in Cooper Flagg and the returning Kyrie Irving, Christie might be better suited to stay in waivers in standard redraft formats.
