Former Laker Anthony Davis will be sidelined at least a month because of a strained left abductor, several people with knowledge of the situation not authorized to speak publicly on the matter told The Times on Sunday night.
Davis will be examined Monday to determine what the next step will be for his recovery, according to multiple people.
Davis was traded by the Lakers in a blockbuster deal for Luka Doncic last week that upset Dallas fans.
The 11-time All-Star had 26 points, 16 rebounds, seven assists and three blocked shots in less than three quarters in his Dallas debut in 116-105 win for the Mavericks.
