Mavs' Lively misses Game 4 loss to Wolves with sprained neck as Kleber returns from shoulder injury

Mavericks center Dereck Lively II was out of Game 4 of the Western Conference finals with a sprained neck, and Dallas missed a chance to sweep Minnesota, losing 105-100 on Tuesday night. The Mavs tried to make up for Lively's absence with the return of Maxi Kleber, who had been out with a separated right shoulder since he took a hard fall in the deciding Game 6 of the first-round series against the Los Angeles Clippers on May 3.
