When healthy, Anthony Davis is one of the top players in the league. This includes on both sides of the court. If Davis can remain healthy, along with Kyrie Irving, the Mavericks could become a top team next season.

The only question that remains is whether Davis can avoid the injury bug. Looking at his past, there are doubts, but as of now, Mavs fans can smile as they enjoy Davis’ game-winner.
