Anthony Davis and the Dallas Mavericks are facing tough times following the star player’s recent hand injury. According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Davis is set to undergo surgery for ligament damage in his left hand, which will likely sideline him for the rest of the 2025-26 season. This injury has limited Davis to just 20 games this season, the lowest number in his career, where he averaged 20.4 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.7 steals.
“I’m told Anthony Davis will miss at least two to three months, he’s meeting with a hand specialist in Los Angeles to determine what type of surgery is required for this ligament damage in that left hand,” Charania revealed on “NBA Today.” The Mavericks have decided to end Davis’ season due to their current standing in the league.
Recent reports suggest that the Mavericks are exploring trade options for Davis, with the possibility of him returning in the postseason if he lands on a contending team. However, his future with the Mavericks remains uncertain, and trade talks are ongoing.
