Los Angeles Lakers team doctors cleared Anthony Davis to return for their critical Game 6 matchup with the Phoenix Suns on Thursday night. That decision, however, seems to have been premature. Davis lasted less than six minutes at the Staples Center on Thursday before he had to leave the game. The Lakers listed him as questionable to return initially, and then said at halftime that he was done for the night. Davis, according to Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes, didn’t actually injure his groin any… Source link

The injured Davis took to the court hours before Game 5 against… Source link

Anthony Davis may have hurt his knee in the Los Angeles Lakers’ Game 3 win over the Phoenix Suns on Thursday night, but he said there is “no chance” that he sits out of Game 4 on Sunday. Davis hyperextended his left knee in their 109-95 win over the Suns in Game 3 on Thursday, which gave them a 2-1 lead in the series. “There’s no chance that I don’t play tomorrow,” Davis said on Saturday, via ESPN’s Dave McMenamin. “As a player, I’ve wanted to be in this moment.

It didn’t take long for Game 2 of the series between the Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns to get weird. One minute into the first quarter, Anthony Davis failed to connect on a jump shot. Further review, however, showed his foot, which he had kicked out to draw a foul, had connected somewhere else: Add that to the list of reasons the NBA should crack down on unnatural shooting motions this offseason. Here’s another angle: Watching that, you would probably assume that it was a foul. And yes, it… Source link
