Nelson questionable, Felton out for Mavericks Saturday

The Dallas Mavericks are still managing injuries to their stable of guards, but there is a chance they will get Jameer Nelson back Saturday against the league-worst Philadelphia 76ers. Nelson is listed as questionable with back spasms that have kept him out the past two games, but the Mavs will still need to wait on Raymond Felton's regular-season debut for them.

Felton remains sidelined with a badly sprained right ankle he suffered during the pre-season. He told Eddie Sefko of the Dallas Morning News that while he wanted to play at some point on the Mavericks' current road trip, he doesn't want to come back before he's ready.
