Lakers win with Davis
The struggling Los Angeles Lakers won their first game after Anthony Davis’ injury layoff against the Brooklyn Nets. After 17 games without the 28-year-old, the record champions scored 106:96 against the Nets, who in turn had to do without the injured Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, who was not eligible to play in New York because he was not vaccinated.
For the Lakers it was only the 24th win in the 48th game of the season, and the team around superstar LeBron James has only won half of the past ten games. James had 33 points, Russell Westbrook had 15 and Davis contributed eight points. With the Nets, James Harden was the most successful with 33 points.
