What happened: Anthony Davis’ volar plate tissue in his left hand has not yet fully healed, per @MarcJSpears. He will continue conservative treatment. Davis is scheduled for reevaluation at the end of March.

Why it matters: Davis has battled numerous injuries since joining the Mavericks in the trade for Luka Doncic, including abdomen, adductor, eye, thigh, groin, Achilles, leg, calf, and now hand ligament issues. This raises concerns for Dallas' playoff positioning as they struggle without reliable star power.

What to watch: Watch for reevaluation results end of March and Mavericks' performance in standings amid West contention from Lakers, Thunder, Spurs.
