Anthony Davis suffered a left adductor strain during his debut with the Dallas Mavericks. The 10x All-Star is expected to miss multiple weeks, ruling him out of the 2025 NBA All- Star Game. The league has since announced that Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis’ new Mavericks teammate, will replace him on the Western Conference roster. This setback adds to a challenging stretch for Davis, who was sidelined for five games in late January due to an abdominal muscle strain. Despite these injuries, Davis has been a dominant force this season, averaging 25.7 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks per game while shooting 52.8 percent from the field. For now, fans will have to wait to see Davis back in action, as the focus shifts to his recovery and eventual return to the court. The NBA All -Star Game, meanwhile, will proceed without one of its most celebrated players, leaving a noticeable void in the weekend’s festivities. The Mavericks will now have to navigate a crucial part of their schedule without their newly acquired star.
