Davis was fighting for position on the inside when Looney accidentally elbowed him on the side of the head. Davis was taken out of the game, returned for further treatment, and eventually ruled out of Game 5 due to a head injury, according to the Lakers.

Here’s the play on which Davis was injured, as well as the aftermath, which involves him receiving medical attention on the bench before being led to the locker room:

Davis was being evaluated at Chase Center, according to Turner Sports’ Chris Haynes, with the possibility of a concussion looming as a possible diagnosis. Davis was wheeled into the locker room after his evaluation, according to Haynes.

Haynes later added that Davis “appears to have avoided a concussion and is doing better now,” which is a good indication for Davis and the Lakers.

The Lakers head coach Darvin Ham told reporters that he spoke with Davis, who “seems to be doing good already.”

In 32 minutes, Davis finished with 21 points (on 10-of-18 shooting), nine rebounds, and three assists.
