Andre Drummond and Anthony Davis played their first game together on the Los Angeles Lakers last night against the Dallas Mavericks. Even though the reigning NBA champions lost the game, both Drummond and Davis were excited to be on the same team.

Sports analyst Shannon Sharpe saw signs of what the Lakers defense will look like when AD gets in shape. “I’m encouraged, I liked what a saw,” Sharpe said on UNDISPUTED when talking about Davis returning to action after two and a half months.

“It’s hard being 9 weeks away from the game, you can easily get fatigued. But I liked him and Drummond together, the Lakers will be a much better defensive team.”
