Anthony Davis Injury Update: January 21 vs. the Wizards

UPDATE: Anthony Davis has been upgraded to probable for tonight’s game vs. Washington.

Anthony Davis ($10,300) has been dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot, but he’s only missed three games on the season. One of those, though, was on Friday. He did return on Sunday, played 37 minutes and contributed 41 FPTS, so it’s not a serious or debilitating injury. That said, he’s now dealing with soreness in his right calf and is officially questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Washington Wizards.

Jaxson Hayes ($3,400) got the start for Davis on Friday and played 33 minutes but only contributed 18.25 FPTS.

With Davis off the court this season, Max Christie ($4,300) has seen a 9.7% usage rate bump to 24.4% while Austin Reaves ($8,000) has seen a 5.0 percentage point increase.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
