CHICAGO (AP) — Dallas Mavericks guard Wesley Matthews will miss Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls because of a strained left hamstring.

Matthews did not travel to Chicago. He played 31 minutes in a win over Oklahoma City on Saturday.

Coach Rick Carlisle says the Mavericks hope he can play Wednesday, when the Mavericks host Utah. Matthews is the the team's second-leading scorer at 16.8 points per game.
