Stack doesn't make West Coast trip

Jerry Stackhouse (strained groin) didn’t make the road trip, instead electing to remain in the Dallas to get treatment. The earliest he could return, based on the timetable of 7-10 days, is next Thursday against Utah at American Airlines Center.

“It’s a tough break for us because we thought he was playing some of his best basketball,” Avery Johnson said.

Maybe Stackhouse can take a turn in the hyperbaric chamber Dirk Nowitzki used. Stackhouse has been dealing with groin issues throughout the season. Jason Terry is starting in his place. Devean George, Eddie Jones and Antoine Wright are also part of the swingman rotation in Stackhouse’s absence.
