Anthony Davis has been having a great season with the LA Lakers despite being sidelined for a while with a leg injury. But rumors of tension between Davis and LeBron James have been swirling, particularly after Davis’ reaction gained traction on social media after James broke the NBA’s all-time leading scorer record during a game against the OKC Thunder. Some speculate that this may indicate some kind of infighting between the Lakers’ two biggest stars.
Former NBA superstar Kevin Garnett’s recent comments have added further fuel to fire on the situation. Garnett has suggested that the Lakers may be reconsidering their commitment to the ?Anthony Davis project? if it doesn’t yield results. According to Garnett, the team is currently giving Davis a chance to shine in James’ absence, but if this doesn’t turn things around for the Lakers, then they may look to move Davis during the upcoming offseason.
“This is featuring Anthony Davis to see what he can do in these two weeks to maneuver the Lakers? If this doesn?t really move anything? I think they come off the Anthony Davis project and move him this summer,? the Celtics legend said in a recent podcast.
Garnett added, ?I saw how he looked when the biggest moment in sports, your teammate, he accomplished something that none of us could. But the energy wasn?t there? No one wants to say this s*it? They ain?t rocking.? These comments have certainly caused some buzz among NBA fans and analysts.
