Davis, 32, has been limited to five games played so far in the 2025-26 NBA season. He's averaging 20.8 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.2 blocks per outing. The Mavericks certainly miss his presence on the floor. Overall, Dallas holds a lackluster 3-10 record.
If AD doesn't return from injury soon, one has to wonder if the Mavericks will be able to bounce back this season. If not, it could turn into a lost campaign. Davis trade rumors are also beginning to swirl, so he's someone who could be moved ahead of the deadline in February.
Mavericks' injury report vs. Trail Blazers
The Mavs have six total players listed on Sunday's injury report.
