“I’ve never seen this. Never been on a game where you cannot take someout out to rest them because we had no one to put in. The end of the bench, normally, you can put someone in," Kidd said. "It’s tough. It is what it is, though. Gotta keep pushing forward.”

The Dallas Mavericks' season has quickly become a nightmare and the team seemed to hit a new low Sunday night when they had just seven players available during the fourth quarter in their 125-116 loss to the Phoenix Suns.
