Last night Lebron hit #38,390 points. That’s 3 more points than anyone in the history of the NBA (and counting). Despite that great news and everybody celebrating the accomplishment, Anthony Davis chose to stay seated on the bench and not join in (See the video below).
Had this DM’ed to me. Can’t help but wonder what was up with AD tonight. pic.twitter.com/zTruSPcqSk

Why Would Anthony Davis Sit While All The Rest Of Lebron’s Teammates Were Celebrating?
There could be a couple reasons why AD sat while the rest of Lebron’s teammates celebrated.
The First Reason Is Injury
AD has been hit with plenty of injuries the past couple of seasons. It could simply be because of the fact that he needs to sit while on the bench to get good enough rest before he is ready to play again.
He Thinks He’s Getting Traded
Another reason is that AD thinks he’s getting traded. His injuries have added up and you can’t have a good team record if your best players aren’t on the court together. Maybe he got information from the team that they plan on trading him?
He Was Upset He Wasn’t Getting The Ball
Last night Anthony Davis only had 13 points on 6-9 shooting. For AD the low number of shots could be the reason why he wasn’t necessarily pleased the moment Lebron broke the scoring record.
He Just Wants To Win
Although the crowd was going crazy, the Lakers were losing the game. Maybe AD simply just had a tough time celebrating due to the fact that the team wasn’t winning the game.
Regardless of what AD was thinking, Lebron made sure to show him love.
“I just want to let you know I love you bro.”
