Anthony Davis will miss at least a month due to a left adductor strain, following a recent trade to the Dallas Mavericks. In his debut, Davis showcased his talent with a remarkable performance, recording 26 points, 16 rebounds, and 7 assists in less than three quarters, helping the Mavericks secure a 116-105 victory over the Houston Rockets. His shooting was impressive, hitting 10 of 18 shots, including both three-pointers attempted.

This significant trade involved the Lakers sending Davis, along with Max Christie and a future first-round pick, to Dallas in exchange for Luka Doncic and other players. The deal has sparked mixed reactions among fans, particularly in Dallas.
