Mavericks' Wesley Matthews: Resting Tuesday

Matthew will take Tuesday's game against the Nuggets off in order to rest, Earl K. Sneed of Mavs.com reports.

Analysis:

The Mavericks failed to provide any indication that Matthews would potentially have the night off until they announced their starters shortly before tip-off. J.J. Barea will be replacing the veteran at shooting guard in the starting lineup. Matthews' status for Wednesday's season finale against the Grizzlies is unclear at this time.
