Lakers' Anthony Davis Sidelined With Abdominal Strain

The star forward will miss at least one week and is set for reevaluation after returning to Los Angeles.

Anthony Davis sustained an abdominal muscle strain during the first quarter of the Lakers' loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night.
An MRI confirmed the strain, and Davis will be reevaluated in approximately one week, though experts suggest recovery could extend beyond that timeframe.
Davis is expected to miss at least three games, including matchups against the Washington Wizards, New York Knicks, and Los Angeles Clippers.
The injury interrupts Davis' strong recent performances, including a 42-point, 23-rebound game against the Charlotte Hornets earlier this week.
The Lakers, currently fifth in the Western Conference, face challenges in maintaining momentum without their leading scorer and rebounder.
