?Punishing the League for the Refs Screwing Them?: Anthony Davis and LeBron James Rattle the Internet With Untimely Sitting Out During Lakers vs Nets

On Saturday night, during the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics, the refs missed an obvious foul on LeBron James that could have eventually changed the entire scenario. Coincidentally after that game, he and Anthony Davis were listed out and didn’t play against the Brooklyn Nets last night. Meanwhile, as soon as this news circulated on the internet, it grabbed the attention of the fans, making them reflect on the affair on social media.

Both LeBron James and Davis are the two key players of the Lakers. However, they had to miss out on the game last night due to a very specific reason.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis missed out against the Nets due to injury

NBA Insider of ‘The Athletic’, Shams Charania reported that both the superstars would miss out on the game against the Nets on Monday. He wrote on Twitter, “Lakers? Anthony Davis and LeBron James are listed out Monday vs. Nets.”

However, the actual reason behind their missing out on the game was injuries. Last night, Davis sat due to a right foot stress injury while the four-time champion missed the game due to ‘significant‘ left ankle soreness.

Both the superstars missing out on the game had nothing to do with the refs missing an obvious foul during the Lakers vs Celtics game. It was just a rest day for them after a hard-fought game against the Celtics.
