Anthony Davis -- who has missed 18, 15, 14 and six games in his four NBA seasons -- has a reputation in some circles as fragile.
This won’t help.

Anthony Davis will miss tonight's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves after sustaining a right foot injury during pregame warmups.

As long as Davis doesn’t miss significant time, this isn’t a big deal. In fact, it could help the Pelicans’ lottery position.
But a longer absence could keep Davis from an All-NBA team -- and a major salary boost.
