Anthony Davis Hits the Injury Report Ahead of Wizards-Thunder Clash
Underdog NBA reported: 'Anthony Davis (ankle) listed questionable Saturday.'
There are three guarantees in life: death, taxes, and making a cameo on the weekend injury report.
According to Underdog NBA, the big man is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against the with an ankle issue.
To his credit, Davis has actually been carrying the load for this season. He is averaging 23.4 points and 9.3 rebounds through eight games, keeping the 4-5 Wizards somewhat relevant in the Eastern Conference standings.
But seeing that questionable tag is a familiar trigger for anyone who has ever rostered him in fantasy or backed his player props. Betting on an AD over is basically an extreme sport at this point in his career. You are essentially playing financial roulette with a guy whose availability changes by the hour.
If he sits, the math gets incredibly ugly for . You cannot just replace 23 points and nine boards against a Western Conference heavyweight like OKC without someone else playing out of their mind.
For now, anyone holding a ticket or needing a fantasy bailout needs to monitor the pregame warmups. If Davis is in street clothes by the 8:00 PM tip-off, expect the Thunder to treat the paint like a layup line.
