The New Orleans Pelicans have shut down Anthony Davis for the remainder of the season due to a sore left knee as well as a shoulder injury.

Davis will undergo surgery though the Pelicans haven't yet specified on which injury.

Davis' exit after 61 games played this season puts his chances of being voted onto one of three end-of-season All-NBA teams in danger, and thus earning an estimated $24 million extra for the maximum extension he signed with the Pelicans the past offseason.

The Pelicans are currently sixth in lottery odds between the Timberwolves, Kings and Knicks.
