The Los Angeles Lakers are a huge franchise because of their rich history in the NBA league. And their geographical location has based them in the heart of Hollywood. So naturally, the team has various celebrity fans who are famous megastars themselves but, in the end, are supporters. And the Lakers are not having the best season of their life. Rather had the worst start to the season in their history. Following their bad performances, the franchise will have to face backlash from the fans. One such celebrity fan is Snoop Dog, a famous American rapper famous for his hits in the 90s. He has made comments on the Lakers superstar Anthony Davis.
Although Snoop is yesterday’s news, he is still relevant because of his comedy and modern music collaborations. Apart from being a hardcore rapper, he is also a LA Lakers fan. And he is upset seeing his team on the verge of missing the playoffs. So the rapper fired shots at the Anthony Davis injury, which has prolonged for a long time as he has already missed 14 games. In the meantime, the Lakers did manage to pull five consecutive wins. However, they are back on losing terms with two back-to-back losses.
Snoop Dog Angry Over Anthony Davis
It is not the first time the Lakers superstar has been hated for spending more time off the court. Anthony Davis is famous for long-term injuries, which will cause the whole franchise to suffer severely. Meanwhile, Snoop fired shots in the comment section of the post posted by Lake Show CP. They reposted their tweet that LeBron and Anthony are still one of the best duos. However, Dogg flipped upon seeing the post and asked how, as it’s been a while since the fans had seen both of them together on the court.
Snoop also mentioned that he is tired of seeing Anthony Davis on the sidelines rather than on the court. Although the Lakers’ power forward profoundly upgrades the team with his presence, his absence is obscene. The Lakers get dull without the presence of their marquee player. And nobody doubts that if Anthony were to be healthy, LA would have had a much better record.
“How? When we never play together for 2 weeks healthy I’m loosing faith AD Need to get his body tight like Lebron I’m tired of seeing him on bench in street clothes yeah I said it what are we doing ???” said Snoop Dogg.
Thomas Bryant and Wenyen Gabriel have tried to fill in the gap that Davis left, but they are nowhere close to Davis’ level. The 29-year-old is smarter than most defenders in the league, and when his physical and intellectual abilities combine, he is unstoppable.
Dogg also reckoned that Anthony Davis needs to get his body tight as LeBron James. Despite being 38, the Akron Hammer is rolling the ball like a 20-year-old. It’s all because of how he takes care of his body. But things are not the same with Anthony. Since joining the Lakers, he has been suffering from lower back pain. And now he has got a stress foot fracture injury. However, the nine-time All-star is set to make a return as he is on his recovery schedule.
