The Mavs still have an excellent chance to make the 2025 NBA playoffs, as they are the ninth seed in the Western Conference with a 37-38 record in 75 games.
If they can get into the play-in tournament, the talent of Davis makes them a legitimate threat against a lot of teams.
Following their matchup with the Nets, the Mavs will remain in Dallas to host the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night.
Davis was the first pick in the 2012 NBA Draft after one season at Kentucky.
He has spent 13 seasons in the NBA with the New Orleans Pelicans, Los Angeles Lakers (and Dallas Mavericks).
The future Hall of Famer won the 2020 title with the Lakers.
