New Orleans Pelicans beat Sacramento Kings for tenth straight victory but lose Anthony Davis to sprained ankle

If there’s one thing we’ve learned during this New Orleans Pelicans current winning streak, there’s rarely been a dull moment.

The usual script over the last month has entailed the Pelicans fighting tooth and nail down the stretch for the victory, but fans experienced their hearts flutter tonight from a different yet all too familiar sight — Anthony Davis leaving a contest early due to injury.

Although he stayed in the game for another possession, Davis quickly discovered he wouldn’t be able to play through his left ankle sprain so he fouled Bogdan Bogdanovic and immediately left for the locker room.
