Rick Carlisle underwent minor arthroscopic knee surgery Wednesday and is unable to travel.

Dwane Casey will serve as the head coach of the Mavericks on Monday night against the Thunder.

"It is no different. [Assistant coach] Terry [Stotts] and I both have been through this before," Casey said.

"We have veteran players and we just have to continue what we have [been doing]. What we have to do is regroup and re-energize our edge, the edge that we had before the break, especially against a team like Oklahoma City."

Carlisle is expected to return to the bench for Tuesday's home game against the Raptors.
