The interest in Davis has seemed to cool since last week\u2019s announcement that the 32-year-old will be sidelined for at least six weeks due to ligament damage in his left hand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Through 20 games with the Mavs this year, AD is averaging 20.4 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.7 blocks per game, shooting 50.6 percent from the field.<\/p>\n<p>Davis has continued to show flashes of dominance when healthy, including a season-high 35 points and 17 rebounds in a December 22 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. He followed with strong outings, like 26 points, 12 rebounds, and five blocks against the Houston Rockets on January 3, making him only the second Maverick to achieve that stat line multiple times. In a January 6 win over the Sacramento Kings, he tallied 19 points and 16 rebounds.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s been sidelined since January 8 with the finger injury. On January 13, reports confirmed no surgery needed, with a re-evaluation in six weeks, keeping him out through late February.<\/p>\n<p>More NBA:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/2026\/01\/major-anthony-davis-trade-update-catch-celtics-attention\/\" class=\"link \" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Major Anthony Davis Trade Update Will Catch Celtics\u2019 Attention;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">  Major Anthony Davis Trade Update Will Catch Celtics\u2019 Attention <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anthony Davis has been the subject of a lot of trade speculation over the past few weeks, with&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":557285,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[495,208,7,225,149,194,3553,6,470,477,476],"class_list":{"0":"post-557284","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nba","8":"tag-anthony-davis","9":"tag-atlanta-hawks","10":"tag-basketball","11":"tag-cooper-flagg","12":"tag-dallas-mavericks","13":"tag-houston-rockets","14":"tag-jake-fischer","15":"tag-nba","16":"tag-new-orleans-pelicans","17":"tag-sacramento-kings","18":"tag-toronto-raptors"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115948931222717866","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/557284","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=557284"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/557284\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/557285"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=557284"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=557284"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=557284"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
