Dallas Mavericks point guard Roddy Beaubois suffered a broken bone in his left foot while training with the French national team. Mavs president Donnie Nelson on Friday confirmed the initial report by the French newspaper L’Equipe.
Beaubois reportedly could miss up to three months if surgery is required to repair the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot.
The NBA season begins in late October, which would put Beaubois in danger of missing the first part of the season.
Mavs officials hope it’s a hairline fracture. A timetable for his return will be determined when Beaubois is evaluated by team doctors. He was to fly back to Dallas late Friday.
