Jeff Zillgitt breaks down the winners and losers from this trade, and what it means for LeBron James future with the Lakers.
Anthony Davis has already experienced a level of highs and lows during his first week as a member of the Dallas Mavericks.
Davis made his debut in Dallas at the American Airlines Center on Saturday and produced a solid performance before having his outing cut short.
The big man was traded to the Mavericks in a shocking trade that sent guard Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in return.
Davis’ debut with the Mavericks hit a snag that neither he nor any of the fan base would have wanted, especially after a vocal portion was already unhappy about the trade.

How was Anthony Davis injured?
Davis appeared to suffer the injury in the third quarter as he was shuffling toward the basket to defend against Rockets center Alperen Şengün.
Davis stopped short and initially placed his arm near his waist as Şengün blew right past him for a dunk. Davis immediately fell to his knees.
Davis was listed as doubtful for the rest of the game due to a “lower-body injury” despite trying to return.
Davis told reporters in the locker room after the game that he felt tightness in his “groin/quad area” but it was “not serious.”
