HOUSTON -- The Los Angeles Lakers were without big man Anthony Davis for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets because of left hip spasms.

Davis exited Los Angeles' loss to the Miami Heat early with the same injury Monday.

Davis participated in shootaround Wednesday and worked out before the game before the team decided to hold him out. The Lakers lost to the Rockets 128-94 and fell to 3-5.

The team is hopeful Davis will return to the lineup Friday against the Phoenix Suns at the conclusion of its four-game road trip, sources told ESPN.
