• Mavericks’ star Anthony Davis could miss up to a month due to a left adductor strain, adding to the team’s challenges after Luka Doncic’s trade.
  • Davis delivered 26 points, 16 rebounds, and 7 assists before his injury but has now missed several games this season.
  • Other key players, including P.J. Washington and Max Christie, are also dealing with injuries, testing the team’s depth.

The Dallas Mavericks are grappling with a significant challenge as Anthony Davis, their star power forward/center, could miss up to a month due to a left adductor strain, sources revealed on Sunday night. Davis’ injury, which occurred during Saturday’s win over the Houston Rockets, has created uncertainty for a team already adjusting after the controversial trade of Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Davis’ Spectacular Start Cut Short

Before his exit with 1:37 left in the third quarter, Davis delivered an impressive performance, racking up 26 points, 16 rebounds, 7 assists, and 3 blocks in just 31 minutes. Despite his strong debut, the injury forced him to sit out Monday’s game against the Sacramento Kings, as confirmed in the team’s injury report.

Injury Timeline and Concerns

Davis, 31, had already missed five consecutive games—three with the Lakers and two with the Mavs—due to an abdominal strain. While he downplayed the severity of his latest setback, saying, “It’s nothing serious. I’m fine,” sources indicate his recovery could stretch to several weeks. The Mavs are likely to exercise caution, given the strain’s impact on Davis’ mobility.
