Dalembert (knee) won't play in Friday's preseason contest against the Bulls, Dwain Price of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dalembert has sat out of the past two exhibition games and will sit out again with knee soreness. It's unlikely that this injury will keep him out of the Mavericks' first regular season game next Wednesday against the Suns, because he's already played through this injury previously in the preseason.
