Anthony Davis bagged 30 points and 18 rebounds, and the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the San Antonio Spurs 123-92 to triumph over three straight games for the first time since the first week of January. While LeBron James had to skip his fourth straight game due to a left adductor strain, Davis powered through with yet another brilliant play in his fellow superstar’s non-attendnace, procuring three straight 30-point games for the first time since March 2020. Austin Reaves also shot 17 of his season-high 21 points in the first half before the Lakers sailed smoothly to a victory that bolstered the Pacific Division's worst record to 5-10.
“Everybody's confidence is very high, while not getting too high,” Davis remarked. “Feels good to get three in a row. Now we've just got to carry it over to the road. Got to put some more wins together.”
