Jabari Smith Jr. Sidelined on Monday Night
                
        
        Houston Rockets forward Jabari  Smith  Jr. (ankle) won't play versus the Mavericks. He sprained his right ankle during Saturday's win over the Boston Celtics. Fortunately, head coach Ime Udoka stated Smith's absence won't extend beyond this contest, meaning he should be back when the Rockets face the Grizzlies in Memphis on Wednesday night. Without the 22-year-old on the floor, Tari  Eason will get the start. Eason has averaged 11.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, and an impressive 57.1% shooting from behind the arc this season. However, he could be more productive as a member of the starting lineup on Monday night.
