On Tuesday, Devean George was hospitalized with a stomach ailment that could knock him out of the opener.
"We think it's a food deal, but he's had this problem before," coach Avery Johnson said. "Now it's kind of come back again, and this time it's even worse than the first time. So we'll have to evaluate it."

Tired of dealing with the NBA’s “hypocrisy,” Mavericks owner Mark Cuban pulled the plug on his league-approved satellite radio show before it ever aired.
Cuban agreed to begin doing a two-hour Sunday talk show, Mark Cuban’s Radio Maverick, on SIRIUS as part of the NBA’s multimillion dollar broadcast agreement with the satellite network.
Instead, he dropped out of the show citing a difference of opinion with the league and fellow owners on myriad issues, including the recent passage of an owners’ code of conduct.
“It was a culmination of many things in my relationship with the NBA,” Cuban said via e-mail. “I decided to make my decision public because of e-mails from potential listeners and because of the information that some of the other owners or the league leaked to the media this week.”

Warriors' coach Don Nelson is exploring using legal means to recoup as much as $6 million in deferred payments earned before Ross Perot Jr. sold the franchise to Cuban in 2000.
"Mark Cuban has been very good to me and my family, but he doesn't like me very much," Nelson said. "I've asked nicely for it [the deferred payment]. We'll see what happens from here."
Cuban declined to comment.
