Absolute disaster, injury plague, franchise and city morale rock bottom, rumors of possibly not showing up for games due to lack of players. All of this has been happening around the Dallas Mavericks in recent weeks, but they now see a light at the end of the tunnel. Far from giving up, the team wants to compete, and Anthony Davis will force his return for that purpose.
The most likely scenario after Irving's injury seemed to be resignation to missing the postseason, ensuring a solid recovery of their injured players, and aiming for a better position in the Draft lottery. However, there is a real willingness from management, coaching staff, and players to push for playoff contention. The proper progression of the physical issues of Daniel Gafford, Dereck Lively, and Anthony Davis makes Dallas Mavericks want to gradually incorporate them in the near future.
- Anthony Davis and the three games he can return with the Mavs
Defeats have come, but the team has not completely sunk. Proof of this is that they are tied with the Suns for the tenth spot and are just 1.5 games behind the ninth place, currently held by the Kings. Therefore, Anthony Davis will return next week, potentially on Monday against the Nets, Tuesday against the Knicks, or Thursday against the Magic. Additionally, both Lively and Gafford are already training with the G-League team and could rejoin the main squad in the upcoming week, aiming to reach any potential playoffs with only Irving absent.
