The Dallas Mavericks are on the ropes, as a bevy of injuries have put their hopes of finding their way into the NBA's play-in tournament in jeopardy. However, the latest injury update on superstar forward Anthony Davis could be just what the team needs as they begin to make their final playoff push.

Forget whether or not the Dallas Mavericks should bring Anthony Davis back this season. The 32-year-old star, acquired in the still-mind-boggling Luka Donćić trade, is making his return to the floor on Monday against the Brooklyn Nets, per multiple reports.

Anthony Davis returned to the Dallas Mavericks after 18 missed games, playing a key role in their 120-101 win over the Brooklyn Nets.
