Davis (calf) is
out for Saturday's game against the Pistons and Monday's game against the Rockets.
ANALYSISDavis has been diagnosed with a low-grade left calf strain, and he'll be re-evaluated ahead of Wednesday's tilt against the Pelicans. The Mavericks are already dealing with injuries to
Daniel Gafford (ankle) and
Dereck Lively (knee), which will make it even more difficult to plug up the center position for the time being.
Dwight Powell could be thrust into big minutes down low, while
P.J. Washington could be used as a small-ball center more frequently.
