Jason Terry will return to a bench role for Sunday's game against the Mavericks

Terry will return to a bench role for Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Patrick Beverley will reclaim starting duties at point guard following a two-game absence due to an aggravation of his sprained left ankle, resulting in Terry and Ty Lawson seeing lessened roles in the Rockets' backcourt. Terry, who has appeared in 31 of his 38 games as a reserve, is averaging 5.7 points and 1.3 assists in 15.5 minutes off the bench, compared to seven points and two assists in 24.4 minutes as a starter.
