Los Angeles Lakers earned their third victory of the season on Sunday night as Anthony Davis starred, but it was reportedly the Green Bay Packers that helped inspire success.
The Packers ended a brutal run of five defeats with an overtime win against the Dallas Cowboys to keep their season alive, with rookie wide receiver Christian Watson scoring three touchdowns in a breakthrough performance. The Packers have struggled this season and went into the game with a 3-6 record.
The Lakers have also struggled, moving to 3-10 after beating the Brooklyn Nets 116-103 on Sunday night. Both teams are sleeping giants this season, and both were suffering a streak of five consecutive losses, but it was after the Packers won that Davis was raring to go against the Nets.
