"LeBron James chose you for a reason Anthony Davis!": Skip Bayless furious with Lakers forward after he admits he has not shot a basketball since April 5th

Anthony Davis claims he has not shot a basketball since April 5th. Skip Bayless is furious about it and says it is an embarrassment!

In 2019, the LA Lakers made the decision to trade a considerable number of assets in return for Anthony Davis. The organization essentially sacrificed its future in order to pair him with LeBron James.

The decision proved fruitful in their first season together, as they went on to win an NBA Championship. That aside, his time in a Lakers uniform has been marred with injury.

He has averaged 24 points, nine rebounds, and three assists since moving to LA. However, this is overshadowed by the fact that he has missed more than 100 games due to injury or sickness.
