Anthony Davis Uncertain for Lakers vs. Clippers Due to Eye Injury, Says Vogel
Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis may miss the team's first seeding game against the Los Angeles Clippers due to an eye injury.
"There is some concern that he potentially will not play Thursday, but we’re hopeful that he does," Lakers head coach Frank Vogel told reporters Tuesday.
Davis left in the first quarter of Saturday's exhibition game against the Orlando Magic and did not return. It's not believed the injury is serious, but the Lakers are being cautious with the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference all but wrapped up.

The Lakers' depth already took two major hits over the last month, with Avery Bradley opting out of the Orlando restart and Rajon Rondo suffering a broken thumb. Rondo is expected to be out until at least the second round of the playoffs.
Markieff Morris and Kyle Kuzma would play most of the minutes at the 4 with Davis out of the lineup.
