Anthony Davis says ‘the eye is fine’ and won’t miss Lakers’ next game

Lakers star center Anthony Davis will not miss time because of his latest eye injury, he said Tuesday after practice.

Davis got poked in the left eye during the third quarter Sunday night in the team’s win over Toronto while blocking Jakob Poeltl’s dunk attempt. Davis fell to the court in significant pain and left the game.

“Nothing happens next,” said Davis, who missed a game last week because of a sore heel, an injury the Lakers are continuing to monitor. “I go about my days as I would any other day.
