Anthony Davis left scrimmage early with injury, should be fine

Every minor knick and contusion is noteworthy when it comes to Anthony Davis. His large injury history makes even a minor limp feel like the end of a season.

Especially with how top heavy this roster is, Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins’ health will be paramount to a successful year.

Anthony Davis has missed 75 games over the last five years while Cousins has missed 87 over the last seven years. The possibility of one, or both, being injured is unfortunately high. So, when Anthony Davis appeared banged up there was some cause for concern.

It happened during the New Orleans Pelicans first open scrimmage of the season, amassing nearly 6,500 fans to the delight of the players.
