03:40 PM ET 11.06 | Already without Dirk Nowitzki, the Dallas Mavericks suffered another blow on Monday. Starting small forward Shawn Marion will miss at least two games as he recovers from an MCL strain suffered in the team's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. The injury took place midway through the third quarter of the Mavericks' 114-91 win. Marion will be reevaluated in a week and therefore could miss even more time. The Mavericks had raced to a 3-1 start without Nowitzki, who is sidelined for several weeks after knee surgery. With Marion out of the lineup, rookie Jae Crowder will see an uptick in minutes.

This is bum luck after losing Dirk. So far the Mavs have done well even without Dirk.
