The Dallas Mavericks likely will be without point guard J.J. Barea for at least one month.
Barea strained his left calf in Friday’s 112-107 overtime loss to the Utah Jazz.
“We’re looking at most likely after the All-Star break,” coach Rick Carlisle said. “It’s the same leg, but a different area.”
Barea missed 17 games with a strained left calf earlier this season before returning to play in two. He then missed seven more games, then played the next seven before the latest injury.
“It’s just confounding to me the way these injuries are just kind of circling back around,” Carlisle said.
