The Lakers, for their part, cut off their streak from seven consecutive victories and suffer from what could be a new injury to Anthony Davis in the achilles tendon. The pívot left the party with severe pain in his right leg and appropriate studies will now need to be done to determine the severity of the injury.” It’s made what I had last week (in the achilles tendon). We’ll know more on Monday,” Lakers coach Frank Vogel said at the post-game press conference. “Let’s hope it’s not something for long,” he added, commenting that Davis was in good spirits despite the relapse. With this hard-hitting victory, the Nuggets took revenge on the team that defeated them about 10 days ago.
