J.J. Barea (groin) ruled out for Mavericks Monday

Dallas Mavericks point guard J.J. Barea (groin strain) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies.

What It Means:

It's not clear when Barea suffered the injury or how severe it is. Dennis Smith Jr. figures to get a boost while Barea is out and Jalen Brunson could see an uptick in minutes off the bench.

Barea is averaging 21.0 FanDuel points per game this season, with 9.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, 5.6 assists, and 0.8 3-pointers on a 39.7 field goal percentage.
