The Mavericks' hell continues: Anthony Davis will not play for the rest of the season

The Dallas Mavericks' hell seems to have no end. It is very likely that Anthony Davis will not return to play for the remainder of the NBA season, including the playoffs if the franchise qualifies.

This has been reported by Shams Charania of ESPN. Davis is working hard to make a miracle happen and try to return by the end of the season. However, all signs point to the contrary. There are 2 factors that support this:

• On one hand, Anthony Davis is dealing with a very complicated injury. When he returns, he has to be at 100% to avoid setbacks.
• On the other hand, if the Mavs are out of playoffs when he returns, or in play-in positions, they will most likely decide not to take risks.

A wave of injuries

In the Dallas Mavericks, as Charania says, they have set a goal of 3 windows (seasons) to win the championship, following the trade for Luka Doncic. That is why they do not want to risk Anthony Davis' health.

Moreover, the franchise has already suffered season-ending injuries to Kyrie Irving, and also counting Olivier-Maxence Prosper. This year, it seems like a utopia to contend for something big.
