Anthony Davis says he wasn't aware LeBron James was breaking scoring record: 'We were losing'

Lakers star LeBron James made history Tuesday night. Teammate Anthony Davis addressed observations late Thursday night that he appeared to be less than impressed when James’ moment arrived.

Davis sat on the bench as James hit a step-back jumper with 10 seconds left in the third quarter of a matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder. That bucket made James the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s nearly 40-year-old record of 38,387 points.

James, a four-time MVP, came out of the game with 38 points on 13-of-20 shooting, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals to bring his career tally to 38,390 points.
