Lakers News: LA Amending Anthony Davis Rest Plan For Final Back-To-Back Of Season

10 games remain in the regular season.

Since returning from a right foot stress injury that cost him five-and-a-half weeks of play, Los Angeles Lakers star center Anthony Davis has been getting the veteran rest plan down the home stretch of the 2022-23 NBA regular season.

LA has opted to rest Davis for one game in every back-to-back pair of bouts the team has had recently, though per Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report, that could all be changing soon for the team's final back-to-back of the year.

On the latest edition of Haynes' #thisleague UNCUT podcast with Marc Stein, he revealed that the Los Angeles medical staff allowed AD to take his pick of back-to-backs in which to double up, between last week's set of games against the New Orleans Pelicans and Houston Rockets (LA lost the game he sat, a 114-110 defeat to Houston) and a pair of games on April 4th and 5th, against the Utah Jazz and Los Angeles Clippers.

It appears Davis would prefer to suit up against two potential Western Conference play-in tournament bracket competitors. At present, LA is the No. 10 seed in the West with a 35-37 record. It could use every single healthy Anthony Davis game it can get at this point.
