Just over a week ago, Anthony Davis suffered a finger injury during the Pelicans' defeat to the Portland Trail Blazers. The injury has caused Davis to miss New Orleans' last four games, and the team has won just once while playing without their star man. Nevertheless, Davis' injury is not as bad as first feared, and the 25-year-old is expected to return later this week.

Jimmy Butler has missed the Sixers' last three games with a wrist injury, and it has since been confirmed that the All-Star had suffered a sprain. It is the same wrist that Butler had surgery on last summer, although the 29-year-old is expected to return to the Sixers lineup for Tuesday's clash with the Los Angeles Lakers.
