Anthony Davis and Austin Reaves power LeBron-less Lakers past Kings
LA TimesLakers star Anthony Davis, center, shoots between Sacramento Kings forward Trey Lyles, left, and guard Keon Ellis during the Lakers’ 132-122 win Saturday Crypto.com Arena. Sacramento had been thrown into complete chaos, the Lakers taking two-straight from them in their building last week — links in the chain of events that led to the team firing coach Mike Brown on his way to board the flight for L.A. But just like they found a way on Christmas with Anthony Davis out because of an ankle injury, the Lakers did it again Saturday in a 132-122 win, spoiling former Lakers player Doug Christie’s first game as Kings interim coach. Davis, back on the floor after only seven minutes on Wednesday, dominated his matchup with Domantas Sabonis scoring 36 to go with 15 rebounds and eight assists.
