Lakers forward Anthony Davis took advantage of undersized Thunder on Friday night to finish with 37 points and 15 rebounds in critical victory Friday.
Anthony Davis grabbed an offensive rebound and scored on a putback for his first points of the game Friday night for. His next hoop against Oklahoma City was a 10-foot jumper. Then he scored on a dunk and his next basket came after an offensive rebound that he turned into another dunk.
“They didn’t really have no rim protection so I wanted to get a lot of stuff at the rim,” Davis said after producing 37 points and 15 rebounds. “I knew they were pretty small so I wanted to get a lot of offensive rebounds and just crash the glass. Every game is different. Maybe against bigger guys — [Joel] Embiid, [Nikola] Jokic, Steven Adams — it might be a jump-shot game. But just reading each game, knowing the personnel and then attacking from each point that gives me an advantage.
Davis had put his stamp on the game, having that “next-play mentality” Lakers coach Darvin Ham wanted to see. With Russell unavailable Friday night because of right hip soreness, Walker got his opportunity to shine.“So, he gave me my flowers for being ready and understanding it’s not easy,” Walker said. “And that’s something that I’ma take to the heart. I would say these last few weeks I’ve had my ups and downs, I’ve had my times where I haven’t really been myself, where I’ve been down. So, I’m very blessed and honored to have an opportunity, and play to the best of my capability.
