What was so strange about Anthony Davis’ reaction to LeBron James breaking the all-time NBA scoring record?

The Los Angeles Lakers went up against the Oklahoma City Thunder in their latest outing at the Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday, but all the focus was on LeBron James. The NBA legend approached the game as one to win – as well as one where he possibly overtakes Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to create NBA history.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis in action for the Los Angeles Lakers

Over his career spanning across two decades in the NBA, LeBron James has created and broken multiple records to get to where he is right now. While he currently is the only player in NBA history to have 10,000 points, assists and rebounds and also features in the top ten of both all-time charts for points and assists – he only had Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s scoring record to break.

And as LeBron James hit the Thunder with a fadeaway jump shot with the seconds ticking off near the end of the third quarter, history was made as LeBron overtook Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the highest scorer of all time in the NBA. LeBron created history in his own right, and strengthened his argument even further in the discussion for the greatest player of all time.

While celebrations ensued almost immediately when LeBron racked up the two points that took him past Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in the all-time list for points in NBA history, all his teammates and staff seemed exalted for him. However, with the fans reliving the moment later on social media, many spotted a strange reaction from Anthony Davis to his teammate breaking the record.

When James hit the Thunder with a fadeaway jumper and reeled away in celebration after breaking the all time NBA scoring record, his teammates came onto the court to join him in celebration. However, Anthony Davis – who was very recently substituted and was on the sidelines – did not join LeBron as he strangely sat down in the dugout all by himself.

The unnatural reaction to his teammate’s feat raked in a lot of takes from the NBA community which gave rise to speculation about Anthony Davis’ future at the Lakers.
