Is Anthony Davis Playing Tonight vs Timberwolves? Will Lakers Fans Witness Their Big Three Play

The Los Angeles Lakers are back in action tonight, with the franchise expected to start Anthony Davis against Minnesota.

The preseason is underway, and the franchise has had a significantly progressive start as compared to last year. Albeit, the Lakers are 3-1, the team has shown an improved desire, dedication, and aspirations.

The LA Lakers are set to play the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight, there may be a few introductions and rotations in store for us. Coach, Darvin Ham, has divulged a willingness to start Anthony Davis at ‘Center’.

“Darvin Ham says the Lakers’ approach to the final two preseason games will be “pretty real” in terms of treating them like regular season games. Meaning, maybe not full minutes for the key veterans, but putting them out on the court together for reps.”

Although, with the Wolves possessing the size advantage, that may be a questionable decision.

LeBron James and Russell Westbrook have sat out the past two pictures, while Anthony Davis started against the Warriors, having missed out the previous two games due to back spasms.

Troy Brown Jr. is the only member who is definitely out injured, with Patrick Beverly, LeBron James, and Russell Westbrook listed as questionable. The remaining pieces of the puzzle could be offered a handful of minutes to get them going.

The Los Angeles Lakers fixture against the Warriors!

The Lakers were successful against the reigning champions, Golden State Warriors, a couple of days ago. Anthony Davis put on a sublime performance, scoring 24 points in the first half. Not to mention, ‘AD’, looked like his former self, displaying fluidity and rhythm in his scoring.

LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, and Patrick Beverly were rested to ease them heading into the season. Kendrick Nunn has had an impressive preseason so far, enthralling the ‘Laker Nation’ with his scoring prowess.

However, given the fact there are just a couple of fixtures left heading into opening night, the expectation surrounding the team, is that we might see the potential starting five and rotation pieces be offered considerable minutes in pursuit to ensure they gel in their game tonight.
