The Lakers are leading the game against the Utah Jazz by 3 points at the end of the first half with a 67-64 score. But despite the partial win, there's a player who continues to show he shouldn't been a starter.

Vanderbilt was right by the basket and Taurean Prince decided to take a three and MISS but not make the pass for the player under the basket, which is basic basketball and shouldn't be that difficult to accomplish, then got beat on the defensive end!!

This kind of play shows that Prince isn't starting material, he is better coming from the bench, to help the team as the wing has been getting too much playing time from coach Darvin Ham instead of players who have outplayed him with fewer playing minutes on the court.

Without LeBron James, the team is getting an opportunity to show how they behave when he isn't around, surprisingly almost everyone has stepped up the game with Austin Reaves and D'Angelo Russell leading the way, the same can't be said for Anthony Davis who is giving a great performance.

Anthony Davis is giving an atrocious first offensively performance

The Lakers are momentarily winning the game against Utah but aren't thanks to Anthony Davis who is currently playing hottible right 2-7 only 5 points and 3 turnovers. AD is giving a good effort but hasn't been enough, needs to step up his game for the second half.
