Ellington will miss Wednesday's game in Denver due to personal reasons, the Dallas Morning News reports.

Analysis:

Ellington has appeared in all seven of the Mavericks' post-break tilts, averaging 5.4 points (on 50 percent shooting), 1.1 rebounds, 1.1 three-pointers, and one assist in 12.4 minutes. His absence could open the door for rookie Shane Larkin to take the floor, but Ellington's workload may just be split among the backcourt's stalwarts.
