Harris (toe), who will not play Tuesday against Utah, said he's hopeful to return after the All-Star break, Eddie Sefko of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Analysis:

With Harris set to sit out Tuesday, he'll head into the break riding a streak of nine consecutive absences due to a sprained left toe. The veteran guard will continue to rehab and take medication during the All-Star break, but if discomfort still persists, surgery may be required. Look for an update on Harris' status sometime next week before the Mavs resume play Feb. 19 in Orlando.
