Anthony Davis was a late scratch against the Nets on Friday night because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, but coach JJ Redick said his "assumption" is that Davis will return Sunday against the Clippers.

Lakers guard Austin Reaves gave major credit to his former teammate D’Angelo Russell for helping him deal with the LA scrutiny.

D'Angelo Russell is looking forward to "moving on" as he faces the Los Angeles Lakers with the Brooklyn Nets on Friday.

Despite a close miss by D'Angelo Russell, the Nets lost to the Lakers 102-101 in what was supposed to be a revenge game for Russell, who had 19 points, six rebounds, and eight assists off the bench. Ziaire Williams had 15 points and Tosan Evbuomwan had 15 points and six rebounds off the bench to continue his impressive stretch for Brooklyn after being one of the team's recent Two-Way signings.

Playing without Anthony Davis, Reaves scores 38 points, LeBron James has 29 and they hold on for a 102-101 win after D’Angelo Russell misses a potential game-winner in the final seconds.

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell discussed trying to move on from the tenure with the Los Angeles Lakers before he dropped 19 points.

Austin Reaves scored a career-high 38 points, LeBron James had 29 and the Los Angeles Lakers held on to beat the Brooklyn Nets 102-101.

Buha's take has a lot of validity to it. The Lakers currently occupy the sixth seed in the Western Conference. They are only two games back of the Denver Nuggets for a top four seed in the conference. That gap should be one that can be closed with small improvements.

After scoring a career-high 38 points, Austin Reaves poked fun at former teammate D'Angelo Russell for not coming through in crunch time.

It’s been a couple of weeks since the Los Angeles Lakers traded guard D’Angelo Russell and Maxwell Lewis to the Brooklyn Nets, marking the end of the second stint with the Lakers for Russell. As Russell gets ready to face the Lakers tonight,
