INJURIES FROM THE OTHER SIDE- None, really

Per Slater

No injury report surprises from the Warriors for Game 1 against the Lakers. Same players from Game 7 will be available. Patrick Baldwin Jr. Is questionable. Out of the rotation, but was actually inactive with toe soreness the last two games.

IN GAME INJURIES - Vando

Moody landed awkwardly on Vanderbilt's leg in a basketball play (clearly nothing dirty). Fortunately, Vando seems to be made out of Play-Doh and he was able to get up and continue although he does have a slight limp going. Will keep an eye on this.

INJURIES FROM THE OTHER SIDE 2 - Iggy Returns?

Per Slater

Warriors announce that Andre Iguodala has been cleared for increased activity. Expected to participate in team practices next week. Could be a rotation option later in playoffs.

https://twitter.com/anthonyvslater/status/1654977427268063232?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

IN GAME INJURIES - AD

Per Trudell

We're awaiting an update on Anthony Davis after he appeared to take an elbow from Kevon Looney in the middle of the 4th Q. He's currently back in the locker room.

https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1656513757282189312?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per McTen

Finally got a look at the AD replay. It was Looney inadvertantly hitting him in this face, not Gary Payton II poking him in the eye as I thought happened live. At any rate, he's been out of the game for the last several minutes and his being attended to away from the bench.

https://twitter.com/mcten/status/1656514346170851328?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per Haynes

Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis (head injury) will not return to tonight’s game.

https://twitter.com/chrisbhaynes/status/1656514577604186113?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per Chris Haynes on TV

Says AD went out in a wheelchair (sounds concussed to me)

TDRock · Posted: Wed May 10, 2023 8:42 pm Post subject:

LIL AD UPDATE

Per Haynes

Darvin Ham said he just checked on Anthony Davis and he seems to be doing well.

https://twitter.com/chrisbhaynes/status/1656518976334356480?s=61&t=XIhSuvDlHb8_n-V8WyJd1g

(It was Mike Trudell, who actually asked the question not Haynes. And when Trudell tried to press further if they knew next steps for AD, Darvin summarily cut Trudell off and tersely said “we just finished playing the game, Mike“ )

Per Trudell

Darvin Ham on Anthony Davis: "He took a shot to the head. He seems to be doing really good already. That's where he's at and the status of it right now."

https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1656519245726105602?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per McTen

There are members of the Warriors medical staff standing by outside the Lakers locker room, presumably to evaluate Anthony Davis.

https://twitter.com/mcten/status/1656519307181047809?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per Woike

Austin Reaves said Anthony Davis is in the locker room and "doing better."

https://twitter.com/danwoikesports/status/1656520937515401216?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per Haynes

Early diagnosis indicates Anthony Davis appears to have avoided a concussion and is doing much better now, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.

https://twitter.com/chrisbhaynes/status/1656526783309819907?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Video Post

Per McTen

Anthony Davis just exited the arena after Game 5.

AD - THURS MORNING UPDATE

I was making my way back to LA but in case you missed it...

Per Haynes

Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis (head injury) is expected to be available for Game 6 on Friday barring a setback, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.

https://twitter.com/chrisbhaynes/status/1656687604560166914?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per McTen

As I just reported on NBA Today, a source close to Anthony Davis told ESPN on Thursday morning he "doesn't envision any scenario" where AD would miss Friday's Game 6 against the Warriors. "It's the playoffs," the source added.

AD NOT IN CONCUSSION PROTOCOL

Per Bres

Anthony Davis is not in the NBA concussion protocol and will be listed as probable for Game 6 tomorrow vs. GS, Lakers Coach Darvin Ham said.

https://twitter.com/mike_bresnahan/status/1656782272518041600?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Per Trudell

Darvin Ham on Anthony Davis:

“He’s doing great. He’s not in the protocol. He’ll be listed as probable tomorrow.”

PRELIM INJURY REPORT - Nothing New Listed for AD

Per Buha

The Lakers’ injury report for Game 6. Davis is not listed with a head injury — instead, the right foot stress injury he’s been dealing with for months.

https://twitter.com/jovanbuha/status/1656810415597449217?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

So still the same

AD & LBJ - Probable
Mo - Questionable

INJURIES FROM THE OTHER SIDE - Wiggins

Per Slater

Notable news: Andrew Wiggins is listed as questionable for Game 6 with a left costal cartilage fracture. That's an area of the ribcage.

https://twitter.com/anthonyvslater/status/1656820546666139648?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Kevon Looney had a costal cartilage fracture way back in the 2019 NBA Finals. He played through it but was in obvious pain.

https://twitter.com/anthonyvslater/status/1656821647687716864?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

LGSRS LOADING - as expected

Per Slater

Latest on Andrew Wiggins’ status with @ThompsonScribe. He was hurting postgame but sounded optimistic he’d be able to play in Game 6.

https://twitter.com/anthonyvslater/status/1656857169831268352?s=46&t=6-sxM4NpvzeWdNMn3aVCqg

Basically it's an article on The Athletic describing how he was able to make it up to the podium to do his post game interview even though he could've done it by his locker. And him saying that he was in some discomfort but he did expect to play game six. And then also they talked about how I think they said Kawhi and then Kevin Looney have played through the same type of injury before there's some type of protective garment that they can wear under their jersey. So basically as we all know this is going to be a LGSRS
