It's amazing how many serious injuries are non-contact such as Kyler Murray's ACL injury.

At least a month?! This actually probably saves the Lakers from themselves where they likely would have given up their 27/29 first rounders in trade for guys that maybe would have put them in the play-in at best.

It never would’ve happened but the 4D chess move would’ve been trading Davis at his current caliber of performing then trading Lebron this summer when he’s eligible. They have no future at this rate.

Anthony Davis grew 6” one summer when he was a kid. His body was always going to have to have problems. In hindsight his best bet would’ve been the KG method of never putting on significant bulk.

If it's any consolation, Davis and the Lakers got their bubble championship.

Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton are QUESTIONABLE.

Jock Landale, Cam Payne and Duane Washington Jr. are OUT.

In a home game, the Lakers beat the Wizards last night 119-117.

Even that one - not counting the other sixteen - is one more than the Suns have. :D

I was pointing out the Lakers trade for Anthony Davis should be considered a success because they won a championship with him in the Orlando bubble even if he doesn't help produce another.

Why you are taking it a step further?

There is still a chance Deandre Ayton could play. He is listed as questionable.

Let's hope Ayton plays. Otherwise the Suns will be down to 9 active players.
