Not to see it more, you have to praise it less. LeBron James is having one of the best seasons of his career and yesterday he gave a new touch of it in Brooklyn. The star of the Lakers was the leader of his team on the track with 33 points that led the team to victory at the Barclays Center by 96-106.
To reach those 33 points, El Rey was fantastic in the shot with a 14 of 21; In addition, and as usual, he had a complete game by adding seven rebounds, six assists, three steals and two blocks. He is still that total player who has been dazzling young and old for two years.
LeBron was the boss, but the big news for Angelenos came with the return of Anthony Davis. After missing 17 games, the power forward played 25 minutes to finish with eight points and four blocks; This last figure makes it clear how important it is for the defensive stability of the team.
“Obviously you see right away what he’s capable of. We drew the right play at the start of the game, I was able to get to the right place and throw the ball to him. It’s very exciting to have him back, “says James about an action in which Davis ended up crushing after his pass.
Beyond individual performances – Malik Monk had 22 points off the bench – the reality is that the gold and purple men completely dominated the game. After an even first quarter, they came into the break with nine points in the lead. Already in the second part, they came to enjoy an income of 15 points that allowed them to manage the last minutes.
