Anthony Davis had arguably his best game for the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday as he led his team to a hard-fought 120-118 victory over the Atlanta Hawks . Davis was a menace on both ends of the floor against Atlanta, swatting away a Trae Young lay-up attempt in the dying seconds before scoring a game-winning deuce on the opposite end.

Davis was famously the primary return in arguably the most controversial trade in NBA history, which saw Dončić head to the Los Angeles Lakers in a three-team swap that triggered a torrent of criticism, both from fans and the media, against Dallas and general manager Nico Harrison.
