David Lee out for the rest of the Mavericks-Thunder series, per report

David Lee will miss the rest of the Mavericks' series with the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to ESPN Dallas' Tim MacMahon.

Lee suffered a partially torn plantar fascia in the final game of the regular season against the San Antonio Spurs. The injury caused Lee to miss the first two games of the playoffs.

However, Lee returned to action in Game 3 and Game 4. He's averaging six points on 75 percent shooting and pulling down three rebounds per game.

Lee's absence means that we can expect a healthy dose of Zaza Pachulia, especially if Salah Mejri, who sustained a hip injury in Game 4, isn't at full strength.
