The Los Angeles Lakers released their injury report for Friday’s game on the road against the Toronto Raptors and Anthony Davis was not on it despite jamming his hip against the
The only thing notable was D’Angelo Russell being listed as probable due to low back soreness although that signals he will likely be able to play as well.
Davis has looked nothing short of dominant for the Lakers through the first five games of the 2024-25 season. He is averaging 30.6 points, 12.2 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.0 blocks, all figures that lead L.A. on the year. If he continues at this rate, he could be looking at the best season of his career.
His first sub-superhuman moment of the year came in the first quarter against the Cavaliers on Wednesday when Davis appeared to tweak his hip. He didn’t miss any time and played 31 minutes on the night. He still managed 22 points and 13 rebounds, but any sign of injury is going to be a concern for Davis given his history.
But he shut down any possibility of missing time or a significant injury after the game, describing his hip as jammed.
The 31-year-old has shown an ability to play through minor injuries in the past, and given that he was able to play the rest of Wednesday’s game and is off the injury report, he’ll be good to go. But as always, injuries with Davis are something to monitor.
