Lakers All-Star forward Anthony Davis says he has a right foot fracture and bone spur. There is no timetable for his return but 'it's healing pretty quickly.'
The Lakers have LeBron James under a guaranteed contract for at least two more seasons, and he’s not guaranteeing he’ll stay interested for that long.
“After that, it was just figuring out the next steps to getting back on the floor. The next day, they told me I had a stress reaction in my navicular bone, so I was kinda dealing with two problems. It comes from that piece, the bone spur continuously hitting the navicular bone, causing the stress on it, which is more alarming for me than the bone spur. The stress reaction [can lead to] a stress fracture, and that’s a whole different ballgame.
Davis said he’d “probably” need surgery this offseason to remove the bone spur, which one doctor told Davis could’ve developed as early as college. Fractures in the navicular bone are considered a serious injury, often requiring surgery and lengthy recovery periods.
