Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) is likely to suit up for Friday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies, as the team considers him probable for the game. Davis remains on the injury report due to his left adductor strain, but he took on his usual workload in Wednesday's win over the Sacramento Kings and appears to be fully healthy.

This is a big boost for the Mavericks, who now have to beat the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night to qualify for the playoffs.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) is available to play on Wednesday against the Lakers. AD has frequented the injury report often this season because of a left adductor strain. That isn't expected to change anytime soon. However, with the Mavs having last played on Saturday, he had plenty of time to get ready for the meeting with his former team. It will be an emotional contest for Davis, that's for sure. With that in mind, he should be fired up and ready to rock, giving him plenty of upside for DFS managers on Wednesday night.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) is listed as probable for Wednesday's special matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The star big man is likely to play against his former team, marking his first meeting with the Lakers since they traded him for Luka Doncic in February. Davis has suited up seven times for the Mavericks, averaging 20.6 points, 9.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.7 blocks.

However, he can still be dominant and has averaged a 30-point double-double this month.

Overall, Davis has played four times since returning from an adductor strain. While playing with a minutes restriction, he has averaged 14.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.0 steals. Davis will likely have his minutes monitored again on Wednesday night, which means fantasy managers will receive only limited value from him.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) has been cleared to play in Monday's contest against the Brooklyn Nets, but his minutes will continue to be monitored. The plan is to use Davis for 25 to 28 minutes. Over his previous three games since returning from injury, Davis has averaged 28.3 minutes a night, posting 15.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals. Although the minutes restriction limits Davis' fantasy potential, it's great to see him back on the court, and he could still do serious damage against Brooklyn's weak defense.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) will play on Saturday against the Bulls. Fantasy managers will likely see him on the injury report for the remainder of the regular season and into the playoffs/Play-In, assuming Dallas makes it that far. But at least fantasy managers will know they'll have him in the lineup on Saturday night. Davis struggled in Thursday's win over the Orlando Magic, amassing 15 points while shooting a rough 5-for-19 from the field. Fortunately, there's a good chance AD will turn it around versus the Bulls, a team that has allowed 119.7 points per contest this season, the third-worst average in the National Basketball Association.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) will return to action on Thursday against the Orlando Magic but will have a minutes restriction. Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd told reporters pregame that Davis will be limited to 24-28 minutes. When Davis ended an 18-game absence on Monday against the Brooklyn Nets, he played 27 minutes and recorded 12 points with six rebounds and three assists. The 10-time All-Star can certainly do damage with fewer than 30 minutes on the court, but Davis will not deliver full value to fantasy managers against the Magic.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) is questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Orlando Magic. AD recently returned to the lineup for Monday's win over Brooklyn after spending time on the shelf because of a strained adductor. He played well despite being limited to only 26 minutes, ending the night with 12 points, six rebounds, one steal, and one block. As expected, Davis sat out the following night in the loss to the Knicks, opening the door for Kai Jones to enter the starting lineup and finish with nine points, eight rebounds, one steal, and one block. If Davis is ruled out again, fantasy managers should expect to see Jones back with the first five, increasing his fantasy upside for managers.

Tim Bontemps of ESPN reports that Dallas Mavericks forwardAnthony Davis(adductor) will play against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night. However, according to Bontemps, Mavs head coach Jason Kidd said Davis will be on a 28-minute limit for tonight's game in Brooklyn. Davis has been out of action since February 8, his first game as a Maverick. With the big man's minutes restricted in his return, he is likely a risky option for fantasy managers for this evening's contest.

Dallas Mavericks forward Anthony Davis (adductor) will play on Monday night versus the Brooklyn Nets. AD was listed as doubtful on Sunday night, so most had assumed he wouldn't be out there. However, he'll return to the floor after being sidelined since February 8, his first game as a Maverick. With Dallas down Daniel Gafford (knee) and Dereck Lively II (ankle), Davis may need to hold things down at the five. But there's also a chance Kai Jones remains in the middle, with Davis moving over to the power forward spot. Either way, the former Laker will likely see a minutes cap, making him a risky option for fantasy managers.

Dallas Mavericks forward Anthony Davis (groin) is listed as doubtful ahead of Monday's game in Brooklyn. AD has appeared in only one game since his trade from Los Angeles to Dallas, amassing 26 points, 16 rebounds, seven assists, and three blocks during the Feb. 8 matchup with the Houston Rockets. Unfortunately, he re-injured his hip in that one and hasn't been on the floor since. It's possible Davis is back in action at some point in the next week, assuming he isn't cleared to suit up on Monday. Still, fantasy managers may not see him back to 100 percent for a while. If Davis is officially ruled out against the Nets, Klay Thompson, Naji Marshall, P.J. Washington, and Spencer Dinwiddie will likely remain more productive than usual.

Dallas Mavericks center/forward Anthony Davis (adductor) has been assigned to the team's G League affiliate on Monday to get some more rehab work. According to ESPN's Tim McMahon, this move is to get Davis some more 5-on-5 work as he ramps up his conditioning to make his return. Jaden Hardy (ankle) was also assigned to the Texas Legends for the same purpose. Davis has been out since February 8, and the Mavericks are currently a game and a half ahead of the Phoenix Suns for the last play-in spot. While Davis still works back into the lineup, Kessler Edwards, P.J. Washington, and Naji Marshall should see the bulk of the frontcourt minutes.

According to Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News, Dallas Mavericks centerAnthony Davis (adductor) has been cleared for more on-court movements. He is set to be evaluated weekly by the Mavericks moving forward. Davis suffered a left adductor strain on February 8th during his first game in a Mavs uniform.

In their latest report that confirmed Daniel Gafford (knee) is out for six weeks, they also said that sources told them Davis is expected to miss "at least four weeks." The report also suggests that the Mavericks are going to be cautious about Davis' recovery since he was the headlining piece in the trade with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Fortunately for the Mavericks, Davis was injured only a week before the All-Star break, but he is still set to miss significant time. Davis has joined Dereck Lively II (ankle) on the sidelines.
