Lakers' Anthony Davis Out At Least 2-3 Weeks with Calf Strain

Anthony Davis and the Lakers might've dodged a bullet.

After injuring what appeared to be his Achilles in the Lakers' loss to the Nuggets on Sunday, Anthony Davis will miss at least two-to-three weeks with a calf strain before being re-evaluated, according to ESPN.

While it appears Davis will miss a substantial amount of time — if not the rest of the regular season — it appears that the All-Star forward won't be out for the year.

The Lakers, however, will be extremely cautious with Davis as they make vie for back-to-back NBA championships.

Even prior to MRI today, conversation among GM Rob Pelinka, Anthony Davis and agent Rich Paul of @KlutchSports has been to take their time on AD's return to lineup, sources tell ESPN. They'll take another look in two-to-three weeks, yes, but "conservative" is the operative word.

The question is, will we see Davis on the court before the postseason?
