The Los Angeles Lakers and its star Anthony Davis have had a dull outing in the current NBA season. The Lakers are currently in the 13th position of the Western Conference, struggling to break into the top 10. Meanwhile, Davis missed 24 games this season due to his foot injury. However, AD recently made a solid return to the hardwood in the game against the San Antonio Spurs. Owing to his absence in a majority of games, the star failed to make the All-Star roster. The fans further rubbed salt into the wound with trolls alongside another All-Star game update.
LeBron James and the Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo are all set to lead the two All-Star teams on 19 February. As a change in the tradition, the captains will pick the players on the day of the game. Additionally, as a surprise to many, AD failed to even make it to the All-Star Western Conference reserves, which the league announced on Thursday.
