New story: LeBron James says he’s having one of the best offensive stretches of his career and doesn’t plan on that changing when Anthony Davis returns es.pn/3KvhSya11:57 PM

Anthony Davis was working up a sweat on the court with his Lakers teammates — it just wasn’t in the game. Latest on his comeback trail, plus a note on Kendrick Nunn: ocregister.com/2022/01/23/ant…11:32 PM

Kyle Goon @kylegoon
LeBron on if he thinks his scoring load will drop off once AD comes back: I’m in one of the best zones I’ve been in offensively in my career. I’m not just going to stop. – 9:47 PM

Ryan Ward @RyanWardLA
Frank Vogel on plan for Anthony Davis: “I don’t know yet. Tomorrow he’s going to get some work in.” – 9:00 PM

Allen Sliwa @AllenSliwa
Lakers 1-1 on the 6 game road trip…Miami holds on, 113-107…Good effort by the LakeShow, were down 26 and make it a game…Hopefully Anthony Davis coming back soon to help
Next game, Tuesday in Brooklyn vs the Nets…

Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
LAL’s comeback attempt falls short, as MIA holds on for a 113-107 win, after leading by 26 earlier.
The teams split the season series, with LeBron missing LAL’s OT win in November, and AD, Lowry and Herro missing this one. – 8:42 PM
