Lakers superstar LeBron James missed the game against the Celtics with an ankle injury. On the sidelines, he found other activities to keep himself busy, including cutting his nails.
The four-time NBA champion didn't show up at the TD Garden Center in Boston because he was experiencing soreness in his left ankle; Another Lakers All-Star, Davis, was also seated off the court, with Bushy Eyebrow sidelined with bilateral Achilles tendonopathy and left hip spasm.
When the two were fighting their own team against their opponents on the sidelines, James took time to cut his nails next to Davis, biting his fingers after cutting his nails, and stopped immediately after being spotted by the camera.

Lao Zhan leisurely cut his nails off the field, and there was a little brother charging on the field. After losing to the Hawks last time, James turned pale and didn't want to evaluate his teammates' performance. In this game against the Green Army, Reaves admitted that James' comments resonated with the team and agreed that the whole team should heed the veteran's criticism.
Rivers said, "That's a good criticism, in my opinion. That's what we're supposed to do. Tonight, we show that we listen to those criticisms. As a team, you have to find ways to get better, to communicate and communicate more. ”
