Anthony Davis Reveals How He Lead The Newbie Lakers Squad To Victory Without LeBron James

Anthony Davis

The Los Angeles Lakers produced a massive win in the game against the Golden State Warriors. It was not the best night for everyone, as Davis had a hard time finding his groove on the front end of the court. And the two superstars, LeBron James, and Steph Curry were missing from the action. But the Lakers trade D’ Angelo Russell had a blast alongside the center Anthony Davis last night. The two helped the Lakers secure a win against the Warriors with 109-103, but they still sit at the bottom of the table.

The win against the Warriors could be the beginning LA was hoping for after the trade deadline. After moving Russell Westbrook for the D’Angelo Russell, Hollywood will be looking for the playoff qualification spot. In the post-game interview, Davis was very vocal about partnering up with the young point guard. It seems that both teammates have hit it off on a very positive note. The 29-year-old is also recovering from a long-term stress injury, and he will need all the help from his squad. And it looks this Russell could work like a charm in their journey to play the postseason.

Anthony Davis Happy With The New Lakers Trade

The 2020 champ is one of the crucial and influential players on the team, but he does not operate at full throttle at the moment. The forward hurt his ankle with a stress injury at the end of last year and avoided surgery to play his time this season. Therefore the Brow has yet to return with the complete menace that he was before the injury. However, his new teammate, who found the Lakers’ doors two days ago on the last day of the trade deadline, could be the best option to share his load. The two joined forces last night to win against the Warriors, whom they lost to in the season’s opening game.

It was a rough night for the Lakers forward as he had only scored 13 points with 5/19 shots from the field. However, Davis is a talented player who could play his best on both ends of the game. So after failing to attack successfully, he moved to the defense, where he had a massive impact on the game. At the back end of the court, he hauled the Warriors with a total of 16 rebounds.. His mentality is a game-changer for the whole team, and that’s how he managed to win the game by changing roles.

Laker Vs Warriors

Before coming to the Lakers, the young point guard Russell was confident that he was the factor that the team was missing. And the game against the Warriors could be the proof with his 15 points, six assist, and five rebounds performance. Davis mentioned that the two are going hand in hand because of their fluent communication on the court. ‘Me and DLo literally talked the entire game about pick-and-roll,” Davis said. The successive win in the next few games could allow Hollywood to finally ditch the bottom-half dump in the table.
