http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2764157The New Jersey Nets have said that Jason Kidd will miss the next two games with a lower back strain, but his absence will likely stretch through the All-Star break.
A source close to the Nets told ESPN the Magazine's Ric Bucher on Tuesday night that Kidd will not play in Sunday's All-Star Game in Las Vegas. The point guard missed Tuesday night's game against the Spurs and is expected to miss Wednesday's game against the Raptors.
Before Tuesday's game, Kidd indicated that he had not decided whether to play for the East in the All-Star Game.
"We are taking it day by day," Kidd said in a statement issued before a 107-82 Nets loss to the Spurs. "I have not made a final decision at this time."
Kidd had played in all 52 games this season for the Nets (25-27), a feat matched only by guard Vince Carter, and has averaged 36.6 minutes.
Kidd had 10 points and nine rebounds Saturday as the Nets extended their winning streak to three by beating the Orlando Magic.
He was replaced late in the third quarter by Marcus Williams, who took control of the game, finishing with 12 points and seven assists. Kidd saw some action in the fourth quarter.
Kidd is averaging 14.3 points, eight rebounds and 8.7 assists this season.
