With Jason Terry set to miss the next three weeks with a broken hand, the Dallas Morning-News is reporting that the injury may open the door for the return of Jerry Stackhouse.

Stackhouse has been targeting Thursday's game against Boston for his return after nearly three months of rehabilitating a foot injury.

"You can't replace Jet," Donnie Nelson said Sunday. "He's having the best season of his career. I don't know if there's any Band-Aid you can put on that. It's like trying to replace any of our other key guys.

"The bad news is obvious. But the silver lining is, it's probably our deepest position. And we've got Stack knocking on the door to come back."
