LeBron James spent yet another game on the bench while the Los Angeles Lakers dominated the San Antonio Spurs. His date of return is uncertain. However, James seemed to be in high spirits during the game. Along with his teammate, Anthony Davis, James was seen interacting with Fast & Furious superstar Vin Diesel. While NBA fans were excited to see this superstar trio interact, Davis gave fans an insight into the conversation they had.

Hollywood stars are regulars in Laker games. However, each time fans exhibit the same level of excitement during these celebrity sightings. So when fans spotted Vin Diesel in the Crypto.com arena, they rumbled with joy online.

With that said, LeBron James and Anthony Davis had a ‘fan-boy’ moment themselves. Cameras were all on the superstar trio while they shook hands and exchanged a few words.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis’ bizarre request

After the game, Anthony Davis opened up about the interaction during the post-game press conference. LeBron James and Davis just wanted to see if Diesel was as good as the world says he is with a car.

So their request was for Diesel to drive, flip and land a car in the Crypto.com arena. As the saying goes “old habits die hard,” Davis mistakenly addressed the Crypto.com arena as the Staples Center. Following this, Davis claimed that Diesel simply laughed it off. He said, “I think me and Bron were pretty serious to see if he could do it.”

With a three-game winning streak, the Lakers have finally given fans something to be gleeful about. Their third-straight win came against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday. Anthony Davis bagged 30 points with 18 rebounds while Austin Reaves recorded a season-high 21 points. Fans were a witness to another all-round team performance with four others registering double-digit points.

While the team banks on Davis to lead the way, the absence of James still lingers. However, coach Darvin Ham isn’t in a hurry to get the four-time champion back on the court. He wants his injury to heal rather perfectly, leaving no room for a reoccurrence.

Ham is certain that with lots of time left in the season, James will play a major part in the season. He said, “We have time on our side, we just want to be as cautious as possible.”
