Anthony Davis officially out of Game Five due to injury

Anthony Davis has been officially ruled out of Game Five due to groin injury.

The Los Angeles Lakers said on Tuesday (Wednesday, Manila time) Davis will be replaced on the starting lineup by Markieff Morris.

The 28-year-old Davis suffered a groin strain late in the second quarter of Game Four and was not able to return, and the Suns took the win to level the series.

Guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is back in the starting lineup after missing Game Four due to a bruised knee.
