ESPN: It is now up to the Mavericks owner to decide whether the thick eyebrows will return to the game. The former has requested to return.
6686 Sports, November 13 According to the latest report from well-known ESPN sports reporter Tim MacMahon, Mavericks owner Patrick Dumont has requested medical data to confirm that Anthony Davis will not aggravate his left calf strain before returning to the game, otherwise he will not approve the return of the thick eyebrow brother. In other words, whether Brother Nongmei can play on the court now is up to him!
The thick eyebrow brother was listed as "doubtful" in the team's home game against the Suns. This is the third consecutive game that he has been marked with this competitive status, but in fact he will miss the seventh consecutive game.
Tim MacMahon mentioned in his report: "Davis originally planned to return to the game last Sunday when the team played the Wizards in the away game, but there were differences between the Mavericks' director of fitness and fitness John Billsborough and Davis's personal medical team. The former believed that the time to return to the game was not appropriate. In the end, Dumont chose to support Billsborough's opinion and decided to let Davis continue to rest out of caution."
And in Tim In MacMahon's view, Dumont's involvement in the matter was considered a clear signal that he had less trust in general manager Nico Harrison. Harrison had previously advocated for Davis to play, but he was fired by the team yesterday.
"The team is worried that if Davis returns to the game without fully recovering from his calf injury, it could have catastrophic consequences - similar to what happened when Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton ruptured his Achilles tendon in Game 7 of the Finals."
Since arriving in Dallas as the core return of the "Doncic trade" that shocked the league and angered fans, Davis has only appeared in 14 regular season games and two playoff games for the team. He was still recovering from an abdominal injury when the trade was completed, but he forced his way back to the game in order to make his first home appearance since the deal, and after dominating the paint in the first half against the Rockets on February 9, he went down again with a related adductor strain. That injury sidelined him for the next six weeks.
