Davis missed one game this season with what was reported as a bruised left heel. The issue has been described as plantar fasciitis which has been a lingering issue for Davis. The Lakers forward exited Sunday's game with a left eye injury after he was poked during a block attempt, despite his reputation, Davis has been relatively healthy the last two seasons and neither injury appears to be serious but he will continue to be monitored
During 11/8 game vs the Mavericks, Durant sustained a left calf strain, it may have happened during the game and he played throughout, but he will be out for two weeks and re-evaluated at that time, it should be noted this isn’t the same leg he suffered a ruptured Achilles on, but that injury did begin as a classified calf strain so something to be watchful for.
Landed hard on his right hip on Sunday and it looked pretty bad, and he needed assistance to the locker room, it was in fact pretty bad, he sustained a right iliac hip fracture when he fell on that block attempt, a return to play protocol will be established in 8-10 weeks, but no definitive timetable or information other than that at this time
Has been cleared to play by the NBA Fitness-To-Play panel, he can begin his ramp-up process to return to the court, which would include full-contact practices, the team hopes he can make his season debut in the near future
