Mike Fisher reports that Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle, fresh off of an apparent fainting episode, will sit out his team’s exhibition game vs. the Phoenix Suns Saturday night in Palm Springs, California, but that he has already returned to work.

“I’ve [been] back in the office (working) for two hours.’’

Carlisle also suggested that he will be with the team for their home game with the Cleveland Cavaliers Monday.
