Dallas Mavericks Injury Update: Major Anthony Davis News, Cooper Flagg's Final Status as 8 Listed vs Nuggets (Dec. 1)

The Dallas Mavericks have several injury concerns ahead of Monday's clash against the Denver Nuggets. Anthony Davis and Cooper Flagg headline the report. Davis, who missed Saturday's win against the LA Clippers, is probable to return. The 10-time All-Star was out due to left calf injury management. Davis made a comeback on Friday against the LA Lakers after missing 14 games.

Flagg is available to play despite being listed due to a right thumb splint. The No.1 pick has dealt with the injury for multiple weeks but has yet to miss a game because of it. Flagg missed one game this season due to illness.

P.J. Washington is questionable to return after missing Saturday's game against the Clippers. The veteran forward was a late scratch after landing on a ball during pre-game warm-ups and spraining his right ankle. Washington's status for the Nuggets game is 50-50. He will likely be a game-time decision.

Brandon Williams has also appeared on the injury report. The guard is questionable to play due to a left adductor strain. Williams will also likely be a game-time decision.

Meanwhile, Daniel Gafford will likely join Dereck Lively II, Kyrie Irving and Dante Exum among the absentees. The center is managing a right ankle issue. He also missed Saturday's clash against the LA Clippers. Gafford is doubtful, according to the official report.

Lively remains out for at least one more game, citing right foot injury management. Irving is recovering from ACL surgery and Exum is out for the season with a knee injury.

The Dallas Mavericks played against the LA Clippers without six players. It could be the case on Monday if P.J. Washington, Brandon Williams and Daniel Gafford are out.
