Anthony Davis has been the leading man for the Los Angeles Lakers during the 2024-25 season, assuming more responsibility on both ends of the floor as LeBron James nears 40 years old.
Davis has done well in the larger role, though has suffered his share of nicks and bruises along the way. For example, Davis hurt his shoulder in the win against the Memphis Grizzlies, though chalked it up as nothing more than a little stinger. He has also dealt with plantar fasciitis in his foot for a majority of the season.
Los Angeles has been able to enjoy another few days of rest before their game on Thursday against the Sacramento Kings and Davis acknowledged that it’s been good for him and the team to rest and get some practice in.
