Mavs rule AD out vs. Kings with adductor strain
Briefly

Anthony Davis has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings due to a left adductor strain, which occurred during his impressive debut with the Dallas Mavericks. After a strong performance against the Houston Rockets, Davis expressed confidence that the injury was not serious and attributed it to tightness from dealing with a prior abdominal strain. Additionally, Mavericks' forward P.J. Washington is questionable due to an ankle injury, along with reserves Max Christie and Dante Exum, indicating potential roster challenges for the team.
Davis exited Saturday's win over the Rockets with 1:37 remaining in the third quarter after recording 26 points, 16 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 blocks in 31 minutes.
Davis downplayed concern about the injury postgame, saying he was "very confident" that it was not a significant setback.
Davis stated, "Just the leg got tight, like a little spasm... it's nothing serious. I'm fine."
Starting forward P.J. Washington is listed as questionable against the Kings, joining reserves Max Christie and Dante Exum as potential absences.
