LOS ANGELES, CA. (March 22, 2024) - Anthony Davis put up impressive numbers with 23 points and 19 rebounds, but it wasn't enough as the Los Angeles Lakers fell 101-81 to the Philadelphia 76ers. LeBron James, the Lakers' superstar, had a dismal performance, scoring only 9 points on 4-of-17 shooting, his worst defeat in his NBA career.
The Lakers came into the game reeling from a three-game losing streak, while the 76ers were riding a five-game winning streak. Philadelphia took control of the game early, leading by 15 points at halftime. James struggled to find his rhythm throughout the game, shooting a dismal 23.5% from the field.
Davis tried to keep the Lakers in the game, but his efforts weren't enough. Tobias Harris led the 76ers with 25 points and 7 rebounds, while James Harden added 19 points and 9 assists. The Lakers now fall to 24-38 on the season, while the 76ers improve to 41-21.
James' poor performance is a cause for concern for the Lakers, who are desperately trying to make a playoff push. The team will need to find a way to improve their chemistry and consistency if they want to have any chance of making a deep run in the playoffs.
