Mandatory Credit: Petre Thomas-Imagn Images Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis is expected to be healthy for training camp after surgery to repair a detached retina, ESPN reported Tuesday.
The 10-time All-Star forward sustained the injury sometime during the season and played through multiple hits to his face, per the report.
Davis, 32, was limited to nine starts with the Mavericks last season after arriving in a blockbuster Feb. 2 trade that shipped fellow All-NBA staple Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. Davis missed significant time with a left adductor strain.
Davis averaged 24.7 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.2 blocks in 51 games (all starts) with the Lakers and Mavericks in 2024-25.
He owns career averages of 24.1 points, 10.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.3 blocks in 787 games (780 starts) with the New Orleans Hornets/Pelicans, Lakers and Mavs.
