Is Anthony Davis Playing Tonight?: Lakers Star's Injury Report Proves a Bit Worrying

The Lakers are finally rolling this season. However, it’s not LeBron James at the helm. It’s Anthony Davis, who has been arguably the best he has ever been on the inside. And sure, while his jumper from the outside is just refusing to work, and who needs that when you’re as good as him under the rim?

Still, this is Anthony Davis we’re talking about. While it is no fault of his own, the man is famously injury prone. In fact, every tumble and fall the man takes can be scary for every Lakers fan on the planet. And so, ahead of tonight’s big game, it’s important to check on the man’s status.

So, is Anthony Davis going to be healthy enough to take the court against the New York Knicks tonight? Or will he have to sit out with an injury he picked up at the previous game?
