Anthony Davis recorded his second game of the season with 20+ rebounds in the Los Angeles Lakers’ win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night.
The pivot has his second best mark of his career in that regard. That’s because, in 2019, he grabbed his career-high 26 rebounds against the Brooklyn Nets.
Hence, Davis played a key role in the Los Angeles team’s win with 13 points in the first half, he had a great start.
In the second half, he suffered a nose injury and was bleeding until the break. In the bid, in dispute for the ball, he ended up scratched by David Roddy, of the Grizzlies.
The Lakers were not dominant in the match despite the win. That’s right with Ja Morant’s embezzled Grizzlies, who live a week full of controversies and are sidelined.
Neither team, by the way, managed to open a good advantage throughout the match. As a result, there were 15 leadership changes on the scoreboard.
The team led by Darvin Ham did not have LeBron James and D’Angelo Russell, who are still recovering from injury.
Dennis Schroder, Rui Hachimura and Austin Reaves were the big highlights alongside Davis. All added 17 points, with the last two coming from the bench.
On the other hand, the Grizzlies suffered from Desmond Bane’s blackout night .
The team’s second-highest scorer of the season, the winger had an unusual performance. Indeed, he only scored his first points in the third quarter. As a result, he finished the match with only seven points and three successful pitches.
As a result, Jaren Jackson Jr took over the reins of the Memphis team. He added 26 points and eight rebounds in 31 minutes, being the main highlight of the visiting team in the match.
Even without Morant and with Bane out, the Grizzlies were resistant and did not allow the hosts to impose themselves in the game.
