Reactions to Video Allegedly Showing Charles Barkley and Shaq Laughing at Anthony Davis Getting Wheelchair Carted Out Warriors’ Arena Trend

The Lakers’ star forward Anthony Davis suffered a scary head injury during Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Warriors. He was hit by an accidental elbow from Kevon Looney in the fourth quarter and had to leave the game for further evaluation. He did not return and was seen being wheeled out of the arena in a wheelchair.

The extent of Davis’ injury is not yet known, but he could be dealing with a concussion or a more serious brain injury. He will likely undergo more tests and examinations to determine his status for the next game. The Lakers are hoping that he can recover quickly, and join them in a Game 6 that feels more like a Game 7 for the Lakers.
