Mavs' Willie Cauley-Stein (thumb) will not return Monday

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Willie Cauley-Stein has suffered a sprained thumb and will not return to Monday's game against the Orlando Magic.

What It Means:

Cauley-Stein played just four minutes before suffering the injury, but was not ruled out until close to the end of the game.

Cauley-Stein's status will be worth monitoring over the next two days as the Mavericks prepare for the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. He finished tonight's game with 2 points, 1 rebound, and 1 assist.
