UPDATE: Anthony Davis is expected to be available (via Marc Stein of The Stein Line and DLLS Sports).

Anthony Davis is expected to play tonight at Brooklyn after an 18-game absence, sources tell @TheSteinLine and @DLLS_Sports.

The plan, I'm told, is for Davis to play just one of Dallas' back-to-back games in New York.

Davis is averaging 25.7 points 12.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.2 blocks per contest while shooting 52.8% from the field and 31.3% from the three-point range in 43 games for the Lakers and Mavs.

Via Marc Stein of The Stein Line: "Anthony Davis has missed the past 18 games with a left adductor strain and was initially targeting Tuesday at Madison Square Garden for his return, but the comeback game could be moved up to tonight at Brooklyn with Dallas now moving Davis' status from doubtful to questionable."

The Mavs are the 11th seed in the Western Conference with a 34-37 record in 71 games.

They have gone 2-8 over their last ten games, so getting Davis back in action would provide them a huge boost to their starting lineup.

Following Brooklyn, the Mavs will visit the New York Knicks on Tuesday night.
