Lakers will be without Anthony Davis (calf) against Spurs

SAN ANTONIO -- Los Angeles Lakers star big man Anthony Davis will sit out Saturday against the Spurs because of a left calf contusion, Lakers coach Darvin Ham announced before the game.

"He was kicked at some point in the second half (Friday) night and it's a little irritated, (there is) a little bruising," Ham said. "So just trying to stay ahead of it and be a little cautious and take our time with it. But he's out."

Davis had 25 points, 15 rebounds and three blocks in Los Angeles' win over San Antonio on Friday, continuing a hot stretch in which he has averaged 33.
