Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis has been sidelined due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot, missing only his third game this season. Davis was ruled out just 40 minutes before the team's game against the Brooklyn Nets, marking another setback for the star player who previously missed games due to a bruised heel and a sprained ankle.

Despite these injuries, Davis remains a key player, currently ranking 11th in the league with an average of 25.8 points per game and fifth in rebounding with 11.9 boards per game. In his absence, Jaxson Hayes stepped in for his third start of the season.
