The 30: Anthony Davis is back! What does it mean for the Lakers' rotation, and how concerned should we be that LeBron James is still weeks away. With Anthony Irwin

In this episode, Anthony and Jas kick things off by discussing the big news that Anthony Davis will return for the game against the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday. AD has been out for 29 games, and head coach Frank Vogel says Davis will be on a 15-minute restriction on a game-to-game basis once he returns. The guys break down what this means for the Lakers rotation and how it impacts Andre Drummond and Marc Gasol. Then, Anthony and Jas share their thoughts on Davis and Drummond will co-exist on the court and how Vogel will distribute the minutes at center during the postseason. Following that, the guys get into why it's concerning that LeBron James is reportedly weeks away from returning. With only a little more than three weeks left until the end of the regular season, how will the long layoff affect LeBron's conditioning? To wrap things up, Anthony and Jas look at the playoff picture and give their thoughts on where they hope the Lakers finish in the Western Conference standings. Learn more about your ad choices.
