Davis played just 8 minutes before sitting out the rest of the Lakers 116-102 loss to the Cavaliers. He had scored 99 points in his past two games and had led the Lakers to an 8-2 record in their previous 10 games. He was a huge part of the massive change in play in the Lakers of late.
Darvin Ham said Anthony Davis had a 101-degree fever. He tried to push through his illness, but left after 8 minutes.

Davis is averaging 31.3 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 4.8 assist in his previous 10 games. The Lakers have needed every bit of it, as he’s helped turn their season around. There’s renewed optimism around them now and they have a legitimate shot at the playoffs once again.
