Anthony Davis Didn’t Seem To Care About LeBron’s Record

When Anthony Davis was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers, it was clear that he and LeBron James were the best duo in basketball. Subsequently, in their first season together, LeBron and AD were able to win an NBA championship. Overall, this was an incredible achievement that gave Davis his first title, and LeBron his fourth. In recent years, however, the Lakers have regressed. Davis has dealt with numerous injuries, and there has been this sense that AD could be traded at some point. As for LeBron, he is clearly unhappy with some of the other moves that have been made by the front office.

Yesterday, however, was a much happier day for LeBron and the Lakers franchise. This is because James got to break Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s scoring record. The Lakers were playing the Oklahoma City Thunder, and James needed 36 points. Consequently, LeBron was playing with added motivation and he ended up scoring 36 points in just three quarters. Overall, it was an amazing moment that had the entire Lakers bench on their feet. Although, there was one person who did not seem to care.

Anthony Davis Reacts

In the video clip above, you can see Anthony Davis sitting down on the bench as LeBron takes the record-breaking shot. It is a pretty sad state of affairs that showcases the fractured relationships within the Lakers’ locker room. Overall, fans were pretty shocked to see this as they thought James and AD were still good friends. Of course, fans could simply be overreacting to this. However, it is odd that anyone would want to sit down in the midst of greatness. At the end of the day, it just comes across like AD is jealous of what James accomplished.

Perhaps Anthony Davis was brought up in Kyrie Irving trade discussions. That is one of the theories that fans are floating around right now. Regardless, this is a bad look for AD, and it should be interesting to see how all of this develops over the coming days and weeks. If the Lakers don’t make the playoffs, then the fallout here could be huge. Let us know what you thought of AD’s actions, in the comments section down below.
