That does not look good. He was having a really good game too.

Maybe he’ll pull a Paul Pierce ala wheelchair game and make a legendary comeback in tonight’s game.

This happens nightly. He’ll probably be back on soon.

That looked ALOT worse than a normal sprain, possibly broken…Could require surgery, out 2 months minimum.

Doubt he misses much time. Even if he does miss time, LeBron can carry the team through the play-in alone. Add AD back to the team and they have a chance to upset whoever they play in the first round.

Barkley refers to him as street clothes for a reason.

Well, this is why they got Russ, I guess. Maybe.
But really they should just let Russ go full Russ and take them to the play in like he did with Washington last year, then let Lebron and Davis take them as far as they can in the playoffs.

No - the logic to bringing in Russ was to take the load off Lebron/AD in the regular season. If Davis is out for an extended period of time, just ride Russ and save the miles on Lebron for next year, unless you get in the play in.

if this summer there still is a team stupid enough to trade for him giving up 75 cents on the dollar to lakers, pelinka needs to pull the trigger before things go worse and you cant get more than 25 cents on the dollar.

You sure it wasn't just to tank? Cause that's the ONLY possible reason I can think for this roster was they didn't want to make the playoffs.

Oh some team will roll the dice on him. Kevin Durant got a full max coming off an Achilles tear, plus another max extension after playin 47 games in 2 years.
FYI - Kevin Durant has played a total 78 games since joining the Brooklyn Nets in 2019.

Having had really bad ankle sprains than took months to heal and even after a year it didn't feel proper I never got so much pain initially that I needed to roll and scream, really the pain initially is very minimal but after few hours really bad and needing painkillers. I wonder if it's something more severe or if Davis is softest player to ever play this game.
Regardless he will be out from month to few months minimum I reckon.
