When Irving was brought to the Mavericks, one of the key pieces that secured the deal was Doncic, and he's spoken highly of their relationship in the past.

Doncic has been out since Christmas Day with a calf injury, and fans likely won't get to see him again until around the Feb. 14 All-Star break. Davis is dealing with an injury of his own, suffering an abdominal muscle strain on Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers.
