Anthony Davis Fights Foul Trouble as the Lakers Lose in Overtime to 76ers

With Anthony Davis in foul trouble and LeBron James struggling in the fourth quarter, the Lakers didn't deserve to win Friday night in Philadelphia, but the Sixers tried really hard to give it to them, anyway. Unfortunately, they refused to accept, and lost 133-122 in overtime. Anthony Davis was incredible in the fourth quarter, but missed a free throw to win at the end of regulation. Austin Reaves missed a critical free throw down the stretch as well. And to their credit, the Lakers didn't quit when Philadelphia had a big lead with under a minute to play. But good teams accept gifts when they're given, and steal wins they shouldn't. If this team is supposed to be considered good, then the Lakers can't let games like this slip away. It was one of the strangest, most entertaining, and ultimately frustrating games the Lakers played in a while. And losing - the Lakers scored a grand total of two points in OT - even in a game where the Lakers fought admirably, ultimately hurts for a team trying to claw their way back into the Western Conference playoff race. And it puts a huge premium on winning in Detroit on Sunday. Before they left, a 3-3 trip seemed like a good result. It still can be, strange as the path to that destination has been.
