Anthony Davis's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (ankle) will miss just his second game of the season on Thursday night after being downgraded from questionable to doubtful earlier in the day. Davis has a 31.0% usage rate on the season and is averaging 26.1 points and 11.6 rebounds per game. Without Davis, look for LeBron James and Austin Reaves to carry even more of the workload while Rui Hachimura, Jaxson Hayes, and the recently acquired Dorian Finney-Smith get more minutes at center. Hayes hasn't played since mid-November with an ankle injury but is not on the injury report for Thursday.
