LeBron James, Anthony Davis shared the same cryptic social media post

LeBron James, Anthony Davis shared the same cryptic social media post

USA Today16 hours ago
The partnership of LeBron James and Anthony Davis on the Los Angeles Lakers may not have been as fruitful as it should've been, but it did yield an NBA championship in 2020. By all accounts, the two got along very well as Lakers teammates and still have some type of connection six months after the trade that sent Davis to the Dallas Mavericks and Luka Doncic to L.A.
Both Davis and Doncic have apparently moved on from the initial shock of being involved in that completely unexpected and seismic deal. While James may not be the happiest camper as a result, most expect him to remain a member of the Lakers this coming season despite the trade rumors that have surrounded him this summer.
Both James and Davis shared the same quote on Instagram, and it has people talking and speculating.
The quote both superstars posted is a personal development nugget that is commonly interpreted as saying that in the journey to maximizing one's potential and accomplishing one's dreams, some people have to be left behind in order for one to grow. Sometimes, it could mean leaving behind close friends one had a fantastic relationship with, as such relationships can sometimes run their course.
While some may think this means James wants to be traded to the Mavericks in order to reunite with Davis, the simplest explanation for the twin posts is that the two miss playing together.

Lakers jersey history No. 3 — Shammond Williams

Through the 2024-25 season, the Los Angeles Lakers have had a total of 506 players suit up for them, going back to their days in Minneapolis. Some were forgettable, some were serviceable, some were good and a select few were flat-out legendary. As the Lakers approach their 80th season of existence (they were founded back in 1946 as the Detroit Gems in the National Basketball League), LeBron Wire is taking a look at each player who has worn their jersey, whether it has been a purple and gold one or the ones they donned back in the Midwest during their early years. Here's a look at Shammond Williams, a guard who played for the Lakers during the 2000s. In four seasons at the University of North Carolina, Williams grew into a stud. He was the ACC tournament MVP in 1997, and when he left the school in 1998, he had set program records for the most 3-pointers made in a season and a career, as well as the highest season and career free throw percentage. During his last season with the Tar Heels, Williams was teammates with future NBA stars Antawn Jamison and Vince Carter. He was a second-round draft pick by the Chicago Bulls in 1998. He never quite had the type of success that Jamison and Carter would enjoy, as he would peak at 8.0 points a game during the 2002-03 campaign. The Lakers signed Williams as a free agent in the summer of 2006. At the time, they were still struggling to rebuild after trading Shaquille O'Neal in 2004, and they lacked quality players around Kobe Bryant who would make them very competitive. The guard appeared in 30 games for Los Angeles and averaged 3.1 points in 11.5 minutes a game. That would be the finale of his NBA career, although he would spend several seasons afterward playing pro basketball overseas. Since 2012, Williams has been an assistant coach for several college basketball teams. This article originally appeared on LeBron Wire: Lakers jersey history No. 3 — Shammond Williams
