For the second time in two weeks, there is a rematch of last season’s NBA Finals, this time on Thursday, Feb. 6 with the Boston Celtics hosting the Dallas Mavericks at TD Garden in Boston.

Mavericks coach Jason Kidd ruled center Anthony Davis out for Thursday night’s NBA Finals rematch against the Boston Celtics.

Center Anthony Davis was traded to the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night in a deal that sent guard Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. Davis has yet to make his Mavericks debut as he's been dealing with an abdominal muscle strain and hasn't played since Jan. 28.

Outside of trading Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Dallas Mavericks made more moves on their team by acquiring Caleb Martin from the Philadelphia 76ers. That trade took some time to go through because of Martin's current injury, and they opted against voiding the trade due to his timetable on returning, according to Marc Stein.

The Philadelphia 76ers and the Dallas Mavericks hooked up on Tuesday to come up with a deal to send Caleb Martin to the Mavs in exchange for Quentin Grimes and a 2025 second-round pick. The Sixers are acquiring a sharpshooter in Grimes who is shooting 39.

The Mavericks are optimistic that Caleb Martin can return from a sprained hip in 2-3 weeks after the severity of his injury prompted an amendment of their trade with the 76ers, sources told ESPN.

The reaction to the Mavericks trading Luka Doncic has generated hurt and anger to a level this area has never seen.
