In the midst of the Los Angeles Lakers’ battle to stay in the playoff hunt, Marcus Morris has generated controversy by suggesting in a recent interview with Yahoo Sports that Anthony Davis was limiting LeBron James’ performance on the team.
“
When you have a player like LeBron, you need to give him the space to operate. Sometimes, AD (Anthony Davis) took up too much of that space
LeBron James forgets Savannah James was with him leaving her with only one choice at an event
He’s a great player, but I think his preference for playing power forward affected the team’s fluidity
The comments have caused a stir, especially as they come at a time when LeBron James is still recovering from a groin injury that has kept him out since March 8. The veteran is expected to return on March 22 to help his team in the final stretch of the regular season.
The debate over Anthony Davis’ impact on LeBron James’ game has generated controversy, although Davis has been unable to play recently due to injury. Some pundits believe that Anthony Davis’ absence has prompted LeBron to take on an even more dominant role on the team, while others warn that it is still too early to draw definitive conclusions.
