The Los Angeles Lakers had been cruising for the majority of Tuesday night’s game against the New York Knicks, leading by double-digits for much of the game, but they saw one of their superstar players leave the game after a nasty fall in the process.
Los Angeles Lakers star big man Anthony Davis walked off the court gingerly on Tuesday night after taking a hard fall on his tailbone after he attempted to block a shot by Knicks forward Julius Randle. Davis was called for a foul but after landing on his tailbone was on the court for several minutes as play was stopped. He eventually walked off the court and slowly made his way to the locker room.
Anthony Davis helped up by teammates. He's standing upright. He then walked off on his own to the locker room in obvious pain.

The Lakers entire team was gathered on the court around Davis while he was grabbing at his lower back. It’s unclear right now what the severity of the Davis injury is but we will update this story once more information becomes available.
