Even ‘Melo was cracking up.
Anthony finished with nine points on 3-of-9 shooting on the night, but hit 2-of-4 from three and got a massive ovation when he checked in the game. It wasn’t enough. Lakers not named LeBron James and Anthony Davis struggled on the night and Los Angeles fell to the Warriors, 121-114.
