On the rise, Anthony Davis rests for at least 1 month due to a mysterious injury

The Los Angeles Lakers' already tough season is about to get even more challenging. Last weekend when facing the Denver Nuggets, Anthony Davis had to leave the field midway after suffering an injury.

The Lakers won with a score of 126-108, but concern is with Davis because he is the best player in LA's yellow and purple shirt.

After a day of examination and monitoring by doctors, Davis' injury appeared to be worse than initially expected. Reputable journalist Shams Charania of The Athletic thinks Anthony Davis will be out for at least a month because of a foot injury.

Meanwhile, some other reputable journalists like TNT's Chris Haynes or Adrian Wojnarowski did not give specific numbers, only saying that the Lakers' bigman will be out of action indefinitely.

As for the Los Angeles Lakers, the team has not made any official statements. As the only person to update the situation on Davis, coach Darvin Ham also only announced that the doctors would continuously check in the next 1-2 days to grasp the status of the injury.

Looking back at the game between the Lakers and the Nuggets, it is not clear in which situation Anthony Davis was injured.

He slightly flipped his ankle during a faulty landing phase but still managed to play until the end of the second half. Finally, the medical team confirmed that Davis had a foot injury and had to miss the whole match. .

This is very ominous news for the Los Angeles Lakers, the team is showing signs of revival after starting the season with only 2 wins in 12 games. From an index of 2-10, the Crypto.com Arena home team currently has a record of 13-16, which means 11 wins in the last 17 matches.

Davis personally was an important core of this series as he excelled in both attack and defence. He averaged 27.4 points, 12.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game.

Now, the burden of burden will be placed on the shoulders of LeBron James. Particularly in the central position, Thomas Bryant and Damian Jones will have more opportunities to show off to fill the gap left by Davis.

After winning against the Washington Wizards this morning (December 19) with a close score of 119-117, the Los Angeles Lakers will have a series of matches that promise a lot of difficulties.

Seven of the Lakers' next eight games are away, including tough opponents like the Phoenix Suns, Dallas Mavericks or Miami Heat.
