Los Angeles Lakers superstar
LeBron James has hailed his
teammate
Rui Hachimura in the side’s recent win against the
Utah Jazz.
The Lakers went on to win the contest against the Jazz with
a score of 138-122 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City. It was their
sixth win in the last seven matches in the competition.
In that match, one of the star performers was young Hachimura
who was one of the highest scorers for the Lakers.
After the match, James, in a post on his official account on
the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — heaped praise on Hachimura.
"Lil bro going CRAZY tonight!!!!! YEEEAAAHHHH RUUUUUU," he wrote.
Hachimura ended up registering 36 points to go with two
rebounds and one assist for the winning team. It was undoubtedly his best night
of the season where he is averaging 12 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists per
game.
The other star player for the winning team was power forward
Anthony Davis who ended up registering 37 points to go with 15 rebounds and one
assist to his name. He is now averaging 24.9 points per game this season which
is the 15th-best by any player this season.
