The Dallas Mavericks are one of the few NBA teams that have fully committed to the double-big philosophy after trading for Anthony Davis at the trade deadline last season. While the Mavericks have committed to having Davis and one of Dereck Lively II or Daniel Gafford on the floor at all times during the starting lineup, the Mavericks could quickly realize that Davis isn't a four and is, in fact, better suited as a five.
Labeling Davis as a center isn't anything that would be considered new, as during his time with both the New Orleans Pelicans and Los Angeles Lakers, Davis was often the lone big man on the floor.
