LOS ANGELES - Anthony Davis scored 24 points, Austin Reaves added 23 and the Los Angeles Lakers cruised to a 117-96 victory over the Boston Celtics on Thursday night. LeBron James had 20 points and 14 rebounds after being selected for the All-Star Game for the 21st consecutive season earlier in the day.
Unfortunately, only one of the Lakers' two superstars were named an All-Star starter in 2025. Popularity admittedly plays a part, and LeBron James continues to be the most recognizable NBA player on the planet—thus resulting in an inevitable selection.
Anthony Davis is putting together yet another All-NBA season, but an alarming trend suggests the Los Angeles Lakers are close to wasting it.
Harden entered the game with 26,700 points, needing just 11 points to surpass Oscar Robertson's tally of 26,710 points. With his latest production, he's now at 26,721 points for 14th place on the NBA all-time scoring list.
