Sat Mar 2 | 20:25 | Anthony Davis Available Versus The Champs |
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) will play on Saturday against the Nuggets. The bilateral Achilles Tendinopathy isn't anything new, and he was listed as probable, so there wasn't any genuine concern regarding his availability for the clash with the Champs. Despite being in the league for over a decade, Davis remains one of the best players in the National Basketball Association. That said, the 30-year-old should be featured in all fantasy lineups, regardless of format. But Davis has averaged just 8.5 points versus Denver this season, meaning he could have a tough time hitting value for DFS participants. |

In the last 10 games, the 30-year-old averaged 24.4 points, 13.1 rebounds and 2.4 blocks. |

Thu Feb 29 | 22:12 | Anthony Davis Good To Go On Thursday |
Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. As expected, Davis is active after being listed as probable ahead of this game. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, which led some to think that Davis might sit out for rest purposes. However, Davis is active and expected to fulfill his normal role in the rotation. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups to make sure Davis isn't on the bench. |

Thu Feb 29 | 17:25 | Anthony Davis Probable For Meeting With Wizards |
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against Washington, with the team listing him as probable for the favorable matchup. Davis shook off an illness to log 36 minutes of action on Wednesday in a battle with the Clippers, and it looks like he's good to go again versus the Wizards, despite remaining on the injury report with his old Achilles issue. The nine-time All-Star has played in 10 consecutive games, including both games of two recent back-to-backs. Bigs have feasted against the Wizards all season, and it could be a massive outing for Davis, especially if LeBron James (ankle) takes the night off. |

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles/hip) popped up on the injury report again but is considered probable against the Golden State Warriors on Thursday. As the Lakers get ready to make another run down the stretch, having Davis in this game, when LeBron James (ankle) was ruled out, is huge.

In his only game against the Warriors this season, he posted a huge double-double with 29 points and 13 rebounds. Much of the same type of production should be on the way. |

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and center Anthony Davis (Achilles) are listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. There is no shock here as both James and Davis are regulars on the injury report. The Lakers seem to list them as questionable ahead of basically every game. Usually, James and Davis are able to suit up, but both players are playing through issues right now. If they sit, Rui Hachimura and Jaxson Hayes would see increased roles in the rotation. |

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles/hip) has been tagged as questionable for the team's contest against the Charlotte Hornets on Monday. The superstar big man has been dealing with both a hip and Achilles issue for a while and has come up on the injury report as questionable many times.

Davis ended up playing a full 36 minutes in their last game against the New York Knicks which was an eight-point win where he posted a double-double with four blocks. If he's unable to play, then Jaxson Hayes would receive some extra playing time. |

Sat Feb 3 | 20:06 | LeBron James, Anthony Davis Active On Saturday |
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and center Anthony Davis (Achilles) are both active ahead of Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. Both players are back in the mix after sitting out of Thursday's contest. The return of these players means that Jaxson Hayes will head back to the bench. Jarred Vanderbilt (foot) was starting for James, but he suffered an injury during Thursday's game. As a result, Vanderbilt will miss time, which should mean more minutes for Rui Hachimura and Hayes in the rotation. Fantasy managers can get James and Davis back in their lineups for Saturday. |

Fri Feb 2 | 18:25 | Anthony Davis Considered Questionable For Saturday |
Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. Both Davis and LeBron James (ankle) were forced to sit out on Thursday. That resulted in Jarred Vanderbilt (foot) and Jaxson Hayes moving into the starting unit. Sadly, Vanderbilt wasn't able to finish the contest and is now expected to miss multiple weeks. The Lakers would be extremely shorthanded if both Davis and James miss Saturday's game. That being said, Rui Hachimura and Jaxson Hayes could be asked to take on heavy roles. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Saturday for another update on their status. |

Thu Feb 1 | 18:18 | Anthony Davis Out Against Celtics |
Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles/hip) is out for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. It'll be Davis' second straight absence while banged up with bilateral Achilles tendinopathy and a left hip spasm, and he'll target a return for Saturday's showdown against the sizzling-hot New York Knicks in the fifth game of L.A.'s six-game road trip. With LeBron James (ankle) also out on Thursday, the Lakers' frontcourt will be severely undermanned. It's a big upgrade for the matchup outlook of Kristaps Porzingis, but this game now carries significant blowout risk. Jaxson Hayes started in Tuesday's loss to the Atlanta Hawks and will do so again on Thursday alongside Jarred Vanderbilt, per The Athletic's Jovan Buha. More will be asked of Christian Wood and Rui Hachimura from the bench against Boston. |
