Lakers star LeBron James says addition of another alpha in Anthony Davis has been a good fit because there is no jealousy on the team.
Lakers center Dwight Howard says he’s found ways with coping with feelings of depression during his 84 days in the NBA’s anti-coronavirus bubble.
These are people who have been touting Davis all year. Rondo spent the season saying he believed Davis deserved to the league’s MVP and defensive player of the year. Morris, Davis said, tells him before every game: “You’re the best player in the world.” They are comments that help reinforce Davis’ belief in himself.He has even more support in the Finals this year. His parents are in the bubble and were in the family seats for Wednesday’s game.
“He forced my mom to do that seven-day quarantine to be here,” Davis said of his father. “So for him to — he’s always been the one to go to all my games, in the home market, not more so on the road. But he’s extremely proud of me. You know, for him to be here, essentially courtside to watch me in my first Finals game means a lot to me.
“You know, we just got to finish it off. You know, he wants us to win. He wants me to be a champion. So it’s a little bit more pressure coming from him, but it was fun.” As for the relationship with James, one hallmark of it, Davis said, is that they aren’t afraid to call each other out when that becomes necessary.
