The Los Angeles Lakers’ return from All-Star Weekend may be a good omen, as they successfully extend their winning streak to two games, a rare occurrence at the Crypto.com Arena for the franchise this season.
Before the back-to-back wins, the Lakers were on a three-game losing streak, which solidified their position as the 13th seed. However, after the return of a couple key players, including Anthony Davis, from injury, the Lakers can finally play at their full capacity.
In their last win, the Lakers showed their long-lost team performance, which even the players couldn’t believe. During the game, the superstar duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis liturgically discussed it.
What did LeBron James and Anthony Davis talk about during the Lakers game?
The 2020 NBA champions defeated the Golden State Warriors 124-111 at their home arena, Crypto.com Arena. In a moment of the game, Lakers center David Davis was caught talking with the 19-time NBA all-star in a jolly good mood.
“I can’t remember the last time we were up 24 with this much time,” the AD said. “Never, never,” Lebron replied, with an amazing feeling for the fans.
AD: “I can’t remember the last time we were up 24 with this much time.”
LeBron: “Never, never”

There was a display of overall team performance last night: Lonnie Walker, Austin Reaves, Mo Bamba, Rui Hachimura, and Dennis Schröder all scored double figures off the bench, while Mike Beasley scored the team’s highest total of 25 points.
King James had a lackluster 13-point performance but contributed to the team with nine rebounds and eight assists. The 29-year-old center also scored 12 points with 12 rebounds and one assist.
With this sign of improvement, fans may begin to believe the 38-year-old legend’s promise to make a comeback and qualify for the postseason game.
Do you believe the Lakers can go all the way in the postseason? Leave your thoughts with us in the comments.
