Jerry Brewer of the Orlando Sentinel reports: Tracy McGrady is still bothered by a strained muscle between his ribs and might not play tonight in Orlando's game in Dallas against the Mavericks.

McGrady will see how he is during this morning's shootaround and then decide if he will give it a go tonight.

"I don't even know," McGrady said when asked if he'll play. "We'll see. Right now, I'm still sore."

However, head coach Doc Rivers believes T-Mac will play tonight.

"That's a tough injury," Rivers said. "We don't think it's one that he can make worse by playing, though. I think he'll be OK for the next two games."
