LeBron James and Anthony Davis were all smiles and points on the Lakers bench as they saw a fan get ejected from the Acrisure Arena in Desert Palms. It is unknown what prompted the fan’s ejection, but James was seen laughing and pointing at the fan, including making the gesture for him to be ejected in a mocking fashion.

Kevin Durant also reacted to the fan’s antics, joining in on the fun, by gesturing at him to be removed while mouthing ‘Get the f**k out!”.

The ejection came about in the final minutes of the third quarter, as the Lakers had a 9-point lead, with scores at 89-80 in favor of the Lakers.
The fan was ejected for shooting a ball from the stands, and then when being asked to leave, behaved aggressively, which required several security members to escort him out with force. The entire arena even booed the seemingly belligerent fan for holding up proceedings with his behavior.

The Lakers were obviously in a good mood thanks to their lead over the Suns, but at the time of this writing, the Lakers have had their 9-point lead cut down and the scores being tied 99-99. The Lakers led the game by 16 at one point in the third quarter, before the Suns began to chip away at their lead.
This was the first game of the preseason that LeBron James and Anthony Davis played. In fact, James had a special moment during the game, as he got to share the court with his son Bronny for the first time in his NBA career. Bronny’s appearance was short-lived, as JJ Redick chose to pull him out of the game after he turned the ball over three times.
James has had a solid game, putting up 19 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks. Anthony Davis was no slouch either, with 17 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 blocks. They haven’t played much in the fourth quarter but might enter the game with the lead being cut down and the game tied.
