Brooklyn Nets power forward Kevin Garnett will miss at least three more games because of back spasms, ESPNNewYork.com reported Saturday.

Garnett, who has missed 11 straight games, was scheduled to be re-evaluated Saturday.

The Nets begin a three-game road trip Sunday at the Dallas Mavericks. Then, Brooklyn visits the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday and Charlotte Bobcats on Wednesday.

The earliest Garnett could return is March 28 against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Nets are coming off a 114-98 victory Friday over Garnett’s former team, the Boston Celtics. Brooklyn is 9-2 without Garnett during this stretch.

For the season, the Nets are 11-7 without Garnett.
