Mavericks' Parsons out vs. Trail Blazers

The Dallas Mavericks were without one of their key components against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday evening.

Chandler Parsons sat out after having played Monday against the Sacramento Kings.

Parsons has typically sat in back-to-backs this season, as the 6-foot-10 small forward is coming off knee surgery he endured in the summer.

In 13 games this season, Parsons is averaging career-lows in points (8.0), assists (1.2), and rebounds per game (2.7).
