This is scary for the Pelicans.
Anthony Davis is having an amazing season, solidifying his spot as one of the top five players in the NBA. Davis is averaging 25.6 points on 57 percent shooting plus grabbing 11 rebounds a game, plus being one of the best defensive bigs in the game. The Pelicans are 18 points per 100 possessions better when he is on the court this season.
Davis left the game and did not return.
Anthony Davis (left groin injury) is doubtful to return tonight at Utah

This is not quite a non-contact injury, but there wasn’t hard contact, which is concerning. However, there are no details yet on the severity of the injury.
