Mavericks' Max Christie: Won't play Tuesday

Christie (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets, Noah Weber of TheSmokingCuban.com reports.

Christie will miss back-to-back games due to an illness, and his next opportunity to play will come Thursday against the Warriors. With the 22-year-old swingman and Klay Thompson (knee) both sidelined, Naji Marshall, Caleb Martin and Jaden Hardy are candidates for increased playing time.
