Sometime on Thursday, official word will come down on the seriousness of the head injury suffered by Los Angeles Lakers star center Anthony Davis.
If Davis is forced to enter the NBA's concussion protocol, he won't be available for Game 6 on Friday night and more than likely would also be benched for Sunday's deciding Game 7 if it is needed.
He grabbed at his head grimacing on the bench before going to the locker room following the play with 7:43 remaining. He and Looney were battling for positioning in the paint on a driving layup by the Lakers' D'Angelo Russell. Davis finished with 23 points on 10-for-18 shooting, nine rebounds and three assists but didn't block a shot.
