Davis ended up suffering a left adductor injury in his first game for the Mavericks on Feb. 23, and he has been sidelined since then. He's been working his way back to health behind the scenes, and he reportedly remains determined to get back on the court, even though some folks in the Mavericks building are trying to change his mind.

Their key return from that trade, Anthony Davis, got hurt in the third quarter of his debut and hasn't played since. But he's been working hard to return from injury before the end of the season, even being relegated to the Texas Legends earlier in the week so he could participate in practice. But that may not be what the Mavericks want.
