Dudley (back) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Suns, the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

This will be the third game in a row that he's missed with the back injury. Matt Barnes and Darren Collison will continue to thrive in Dudley's absence, and even upon his return, Dudley will probably only be of use in deeper leagues.
