Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis will miss tonight’s crucial game against the Golden State Warriors due to a headache and nausea. This comes as a big blow to the Lakers’ playoff push, as they battle for an automatic playoff berth.
Davis has been a key player for the Lakers this season, averaging over 24 points and 12 rebounds per game. He’s also managed to stay healthy, appearing in most games this season.
While the exact cause of his headache and nausea is unknown, it’s not concussion-related. This is a relief for the Lakers, but his absence is still significant.
In Davis’ place, look for Jaxson Hayes to start alongside LeBron James. The Lakers will need others to step up offensively, as Davis’ scoring has dipped against the Warriors this season.
This game is a must-win for the Lakers if they want to avoid the play-in tournament. The Warriors currently hold the tiebreaker and a win tonight would put them in a strong position for the playoffs.
