**Dallas Mavericks Star Anthony Davis Faces Uncertain Timeline After Hand Injury**
Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis previously suffered ligament damage in his left hand, raising concerns about his availability for the upcoming months. If surgery becomes necessary, Davis could miss an extended period of action.
Mavs head coach Jason Kidd addressed the situation ahead of Monday’s game against the Brooklyn Nets. “Sometime this week he (Davis) will talk to the doctors, but there is no schedule or no timetable when he’s going to make that announcement,” Kidd told reporters. This means the timeline for Davis’s return remains uncertain as he is set to meet with medical professionals this week for further evaluation.
Before the injury was announced, Davis had been mentioned in trade rumors. However, the likelihood of an Anthony Davis trade happening this season now seems slim. The next injury update will be crucial in determining if any deals will materialize before the trade deadline.
Injuries continue to pose challenges for the Mavericks. Coach Kidd emphasized the team’s resilience amid absences, stating, “We’ve been through this before, not just with AD, we’ve been hit with a lot of injuries over the last few years. Next man up mentality. You gotta play, you gotta be a pro.”
Kidd also provided an update on the health of PJ Washington, who is sidelined with a right ankle sprain. “He’s doing court work and hopefully he’s back in a week,” Kidd said optimistically.
The Mavericks will face the Brooklyn Nets at 8:30 PM EST in Dallas. Both teams have struggled this season, with Dallas holding a 14-25 record while Brooklyn sits at 11-25 heading into Monday night’s contest. Fans will be watching closely to see how these injury developments impact the Mavs’ performance moving forward.
