Le Saviez-vous ?
Davis is called 'The Original Maverick' because he was one of the very first players selected by Dallas in the 1980 NBA expansion draft — he played the franchise's very first game in NBA history.
Despite never making an All-Star team, Davis's 5,990 career assists with the Mavericks ranked among the franchise's all-time records for many years — a testament to his team-first approach.
Davis bounced through four organizations and even played in the minor leagues before finding his home in Dallas — his career trajectory is one of the greatest perseverance stories in franchise history.
He was the starting point guard who orchestrated the growth of the Mavericks from expansion doormat to Western Conference contender — a 12-year process that defined the franchise's foundation.
