After Davis was injured, LeBron James took on a huge load, scoring at least 25 points per game and averaging 32.5 points in nearly 37 minutes per game. James isn't worried about being overburdened, but it's clear that after Davis' comeback, James' burden will be lightened.

"Davis can help the team in every way, and one of the things is absolute, which is to share the load," Lakers coach Vogel said.

The Lakers have reached the stage where they need Davis the most, and the Lakers' record has become 23-24 after losing to the Heat, ranking only eighth in the West, which is the eighth time this season that the Lakers' winning percentage has fallen below 50%. The good news is that Davis is coming back soon.

For Davis's comeback, Westbrook is full of expectations, he said: "Whenever you welcome back a player like Davis, it can definitely change your team, not just the offensive end, but also the defensive end, and he can do a lot of things that other players of equal stature can't do." ”

When Davis was injured, the Lakers recorded 16 wins and 14 losses, and after Davis fell down with a knee injury, the Lakers record was only 7 wins and 10 losses. No matter how ugly Davis' Lakers 100-game goal difference is, his average of 23.3 points, 9.9 rebounds and 2 blocks per game this season is a real contribution. Of course, the Lakers need Davis to play better, and his performance before injury is very different from the championship season, especially the three-point shooting rate, his shooting rate is only 17.9%, compared to more than 38% of the championship season.

The Lakers need Davis to regain dominance, and if he only plays the second or even third boss around James, the trajectory of the Lakers falling into the abyss will not change much. The Lakers have exhausted their chips in the Davis and Westbrook trades, and they have a hard time reinforcing through the trade, in which case Davis must play the Lakers' star-level performance.

Yes, before Davis was injured, the Lakers had a lot of problems. After Davis returns, the Lakers still have many shortcomings, such as their lack of effort and concentration, such as their lack of outside defense strength.

Even Wei Shao said: "You can't solve all the problems of the team by one person." ”

These may be true, but if anyone else has the possibility to help the Lakers turn the situation around, it can only be Davis, who carries all the hopes of the Lakers and the last hope of the Lakers.
