UPDATE: Anthony Davis is available (h/t Underdog NBA).

On Thursday night, the Los Angeles Lakers will play the Kings in Sacramento, California.

For the game, Anthony Davis is on the injury report, but he is listed as probable, so he should be available.

The superstar forward is averaging 27.8 points, 11.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.0 blocks per contest while shooting 53.4% from the field and 30.5% from the three-point range in 25 games.

Via Underdog NBA: "Anthony Davis (foot) probable for Thursday."

Davis has had a very strong season.

At one point, many were talking about the former Kentucky star as being an MVP candidate.

He most recently had 40 points, 16 rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block while shooting 15/22 from the field and 1/4 from the three-point range in Sunday's 116-110 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies (at home).

The Lakers enter the matchup with Sacramento as the tenth seed in the Western Conference with a 14-12 record in 26 games.

Despite beating Memphis, they have gone just 4-6 over their last ten.

In addition, the Lakers have struggled on the road, going 5-9 in 14 games outside of Los Angeles.

Davis is in his 13th NBA season.

Prior to his six seasons with the Lakers, the future Hall of Famer played for the New Orleans Pelicans.

Following Thursday's contest, the Lakers will play the Kings one more time (also in Sacramento) on Saturday.

They will then return home to host Tobias Harris and the Detroit Pistons on Monday night in Los Angeles, California.
