Anthony Davis had classic reaction to LeBron’s wild shot
LeBron James knocked down a dagger late in the fourth quarter against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday to give the Los Angeles Lakers a much-needed win, and Anthony Davis watched from the bench. It was hard to tell if the All-Star center was impressed or not, however.
When LeBron drained a fadeaway three-pointer to give the Lakers a 123-117 lead with 31 seconds remaining, Davis was immediately shown on the broadcast. We’ll let you try to figure out what he was thinking.

You might be inclined to think Davis was disgusted, but hasn’t he essentially admitted that he doesn’t care if the Pelicans win or lose? He has no intention of signing with them long-term, so it would stand to reason that he has checked out.
Considering what we have heard about where Davis wants to be traded, it’s possible he was just trying to hide his excitement.
