Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis limped back to the locker room during the first quarter of his team's Game 6 loss to the Phoenix Suns.

The big man was a game-time decision with the groin issue that kept him out of Game 5 but got the start after going through warmups. The All-Star center was seen hobbling during his nearly six minutes of action.

Davis exited with one assist and one rebound but eventually came back to the bench. He didn't do anything in 5:25 of action to make his groin strain more severe, sources told ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

Los Angeles struggled regardless of Davis being on the floor, getting outscored 36-14 by Phoenix in the first quarter en route to a 113-100 loss.
