The Los Angeles Lakers have listed Anthony Davis on the injury report vs the Pelicans
The New Orleans and Los Angeles Lakers both face off in a back-to-back tonight after both teams narrowly won their first games of the NBA cup. Since it's a back-to-back, there are some questions on who is going to play on either side.
Last night against the San Antonio Spurs, Anthony Davis had a tremendous performance where he put up 40 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal on 54/50/83 shooting from the field. Davis has been an absolute menace and MVP candidate for the Lakers this season. Through 11 games, he's averaged: 31.1 points, 10.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.1 blocks, and 1.2 steals on 56/42/80 shooting from the field.
The Los Angeles Lakers have officially listed Davis on the injury report as probable with left plantar fasciitis. It's a great sign for the Lakers, and a very unfortunate one for the Pelicans as they remain shorthanded.With Daniel Theis being the starting center for the Pelicans, it's going to take a committee approach to stop Davis. However, no one has really done that yet this season, so it's easier said than done.
