Summary
The Lakers won a mostly poorly played game against the Spurs on Wednesday night, but the bigger news was Anthony Davis returning to the lineup after missing the last 20 games with his foot injury and Rui Hachimura making his Lakers debut. From the immediate impact AD had on the Lakers defense to Rui's ability to shoot over the top to some of the rotation questions adding two forwards back into the mix will inspire in future games, Pete, Mike, and Darius tackle the games of both players and discuss where things can go from here.
