What happened to Anthony Davis?
Anthony Davis has stayed relatively healthy for most of the season. He has been dealing with spasms in his hip and left adductor since November, but it seems like he has recovered from it, based on the latest LA Lakers injury report.
Davis is nursing a left ankle sprain and bone bruise likely suffered against the San Antonio Spurs last week. He sprained his ankle in the first play of the game but soldiered on to finish it. He sat out the next game before returning on Monday against the New York Knicks.
The eight-time All-Star possibly aggravated his ankle injury against the Knicks, with the Lakers just being cautious. He has played through the spasms, so he will try to play through the sprained ankle as well.
