Re: Anthony Davis: The adductor muscles are more commonly known as the groin. A multi-week absence suggests a more moderate strain. Worth noting AD has a history of low-grade left adductor strains dating back to his time in New Orleans. He has also been nursing an abdominal – 9:35 PM

With Anthony Davis out for All-Star weekend, I’d imagine Domantas Sabonis would be a lock as an injury replacement, if Domas was willing to do so. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver will name that replacement. – 9:32 PM

Norman Powell would be my pick for replacing AD on the All-Star roster. Outstanding season for Powell — 24 points per game on 43% three-point shooting — who has been a driving force behind the Clippers strong start. – 9:29 PM

The Rocket ad was mystifying, a total stretch. But then we rejoin that embarrassing scene at the stadium in which they’re trying to get the fans at the game to sing along? – 7:43 PM

Mavs list Anthony Davis (left adductor strain) as out for tomorrow’s home game against Sacramento. PJ Washington is questionable, as are Max Christie (right shoulder strain) and Dante Exum (left Achilles tightness). – 6:37 PM

Ime Udoka called the double-big lineup a “necessity” because Anthony Davis thrived, but he feels seeing more of it depends on matchup.
“It will require Alpi to guard a lot of smallball fours and stretch fours and chase guys on the perimeter, which we don’t always love.” pic.x.com/ZpKp7x42Ph – 12:42 PM

Anthony Davis passed Isiah Thomas in scoring yesterday for No. 69 all-time.
Fellow Mav Klay Thompson moved ahead of Juwan Howard for No. 122.
Devin Booker moves up another spot (No. 131) after passing Detlef Schrempf. – 5:33 AM

More on this storyline
Jeff Stotts: Sent this out days before the trade. With surgery being discussed as a possible option, it’s seems more and more likely AD has a core muscle injury (CMI). Surgery comes with a high success rate but would likely end his season. -via x.com / February 10, 2025
Brad Turner: Sources confirmed that Dallas star Anthony Davis will be out at least a month with left Abductor strain . -via Twitter @BA_Turner / February 9, 2025
