Dallas Mavericks forward Anthony Davis exited Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers in the first quarter with a lower leg injury.

Davis scored a basket but came up hobbled on the play. He left the floor and went to the locker room.

Mavericks PR announced he was questionable to return due to lower left leg soreness. Davis had four points and four rebounds in seven minutes before his exit.

Davis has battled repeated injuries in recent years, including missing all but nine games after being traded to the Mavericks from the Los Angeles Lakers last February.

Aside from the 76 games he played in 2023-24, Davis has missed at least 26 games each season since 2020-21.
