Sources: Pelicans' Anthony Davis gets X-rays after loss to Thunder

OKLAHOMA CITY -- New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis underwent an X-ray after a 101-92 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday, according to league sources.

Davis denied the account when approached by ESPN, but the Pelicans forward was observed receiving treatment, including a black wrap, on his right foot at his locker before speaking to the media. On Monday, Davis was listed as probable for that night's home game against Memphis.

Davis, who had 37 points and 15 rebounds in 43 minutes, was observed wincing and hobbling at times early in the game but appeared to be walking without a noticeable limp in the locker room.

The 23-year-old missed a career-high 21 games last season, including the Pelicans' final 14, to undergo an ultrasonic debridement of his left knee.

He has sat out one game this season, because of a right thigh bruise, and missed parts of three other games.

Davis leads the NBA in points (31.5) and blocks (2.7) and is averaging career highs in rebounds (11), steals (1.8) and minutes (37.2) per game.
