Lakers Injury Report: Final Statuses Of Anthony Davis, LeBron James Revealed For 76ers Game
Though your Los Angeles Lakers will be without the services of a whopping four rotation players, including a starter, when they meet with the Philadelphia 76ers for the first time this season, they will happily be able to start their two best guys when the action tips off at 4 p.m. PT.
Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports that star center Anthony Davis will play through his continued left hip/adductor spasm, while All-NBA power forward LeBron James will keep grinding through his left calf contusion.
Per our beloved aggregator The Action Network, the Sixers are currently -5.5 favorites to pull off the win tonight, which makes sense given that they'll be playing at home at the Wells Fargo Center.
Both players seem to be well on their way to additional All-Star appearances. If they can stay healthy (that's a big "if"), Davis would be making his ninth All-Star team, while James would qualify for a record-shattering 20th appearance.
The game can be taken in via NBA TV nationally and Spectrum SportsNet locally. For cord-cutters in the Southern California area, you can take in the fun on Spectrum's new streaming service, Spectrum SportsNet+.
