However, the Mavericks have another star player who will complement Davis, currently listed on the Mavericks' injury report. Kyrie Irving is as dynamic of a player as they come with ball handling skills that set him miles apart from his competition.

Irving is one of the best guards of his generation with a resume that includes a championship, nine All-Star nods, a Rookie of the Year and three All-NBA selections. He will be the leader of the team's backcourt once he does return, especially since Dončić is no longer on the roster. And that return is expected in January.
