The Mavericks expect to be without point guard Devin Harris for tonight's game at Seattle.

Harris injured his right shoulder late in the first half of a 102-93 win against Golden State on Wednesday at The Arena. Chasing Baron Davis as he ran upcourt for a last-second shot, Harris ran squarely into a Mike Dunleavy pick.

Harris had to be helped to the locker room and did not return for the second half. An examination found that Harris had a sprained right shoulder in addition to a sore jaw. Harris said he probably will not play against Seattle but hopes to return for Saturday's home game against Seattle.

Harris never saw the pick and therefore had no time to brace himself.

"I don't expect to get hit like this," Harris said. "Normally, I see him coming. I hit him kind of awkwardly."
