The Dallas Mavericks are evaluating their options with Anthony Davis after confirming the forward will miss approximately six weeks because of ligament damage in his left hand.
The projected recovery window runs through early February, overlapping the NBA’s trade deadline. ESPN’s Tim MacMahon reports that Dallas is still fielding calls on Davis but ownership has not ordered a trade, allowing the front office to wait for what it considers fair value.
If no agreement materializes by the deadline, discussions inside the organization are expected to shift from potential trades to long-term risk management. Team officials are already debating whether bringing Davis back this season makes sense or if preserving his health and revisiting possibilities in the offseason is the safer route.
The next several weeks will determine whether Dallas moves the All-Star or keeps him sidelined until summer decisions are made.
