Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford will miss at least two weeks after spraining his right knee in a loss to the Sacramento Kings, the team announced on Wednesday.

"Daniel Gafford injury update: Daniel Gafford sustained a right knee sprain during the February 10 game against the Kings. Gafford will be re-evaluated within two weeks," Dallas said in a statement.

Gafford exited in the second quarter of the Kings’ 129-128 overtime win Monday after making knee-to-knee contact with Sacramento guard Malik Monk near midcourt.

The 26-year-old player joined Davis, Dereck Lively II (stress fracture in an ankle), and Dwight Powell (hip strain) among the injured frontcourt players for Dallas.

Dallas have home games against Golden State on Wednesday and Miami on Thursday before the All-Star break.
