LeBron Preparing For Davis To Miss Game 6 By Anthony Riccobono on June 03 2021 12:15 AM LeBron James #23 and Anthony Davis #3 of the Los Angeles Lakers celebrate during the game against the Memphis Grizzlies at Staples Center on February 12, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. The Los Angeles Lakers might be forced to try to keep their playoff hopes alive with Anthony Davis on the bench. L.A. fell into a 3-2 series hole against the Phoenix Suns onTuesday night as Davis nursed a groin strain, and LeBron James is ready for the superstar to miss a second straight contest. “My mindset is that he’s not gonna be able to play in Game 6. That’s my mindset,” James told reporters after the Suns embarrassed the Lakers 115-85 in Game 5. “And if something changes, then we go from there. But I’m preparing as if he's not.”
