The Lakers' loss to the Warriors on Tuesday night can be described by the same two words that caused Anthony Davis to sit out game: nausea, headache.
Headache. Nausea. The two words were uttered Tuesday night to describe the condition of a certain Laker. The two words could also describe the reaction of their fans. Headache. Nausea. In the final hours before tipoff against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night at Crypto.com Arena, the Lakers announced that Anthony Davis was going to miss the game because of a headache and nausea. Davis is their most important player. This was going to be, thus far, their most important game.
The is only thing for certain: When Davis doesn’t play, the Lakers are a vastly different team … a noticeably worse team … a losing team. “It’s almost pretty much impossible to make up for what he provides for our ballclub, both offensively and defensively,” said James. On Tuesday, the Lakers’ task was, well, almost pretty much impossible. Offensively, Rui Hachimura and D’Angelo Russell were required to have big games, and didn’t, combining to go 10-for-32.
