Anthony Davis
The Los Angeles Lakers have put an end to their losing streak with their victory against the Denver Nuggets. But that definitely came at a cost that the Lakers may pay dearly in the games to come. Anthony Davis, the Lakers’ center remains questionable as he is suffering from a back injury that he endured against the Nuggets. On the bright side, it appears that the Lakers may have discovered something by using Westbrook as a sixth man.
As for Davis, it is nothing new for the 29-year-old star who missed most of the previous season due to his injuries. An Unnamed NBA executive speaking on the matter said, “I don’t like what I’ve seen from AD, that back doesn’t look healthy,” according to Bleacher Report. Needless to say, he’s got the fans worried, here are some reactions from the fans.
He dropped an alarming truth bomb regarding his back which is obviously still ailing him. During the Lakers post-game interview he said, “Gotta keep doing what I’m doing. The back was killing me tonight but I’m just trying to do all that I can do to help the team get a win. If it means fighting through it, then I’ll fight through it. Got two days in between games to get it right for New Orleans on Wednesday, so I’m gonna make sure I do all I can.”
Although Davis has only missed one game so far this season, Lakers supporters undoubtedly hold their breath whenever the eight-time All-Star shows any indications of pain on the court. He must remain healthy for most of the season if the squad hopes to make the playoffs.
