Did Anthony Davis and the Los Angeles Lakers get revenge on Lil Wayne?

Wayne, who is 41 years old, didn't seem to have a good time at the Los Angeles Lakers game against the Washington Wizards on Thursday, February 29. He took to X to express his disappointment, saying, "Wow! Got treated poorly at the Laker game just now, but I expected it either because of my comments about Anthony Davis or simply because they don't mess with me."

Wayne mentioned feeling a sense of being ignored by the Lakers organization, but he shrugged it off, saying he understood and wasn't bothered by it. He expressed his familiarity with such treatment and didn't delve into specifics of how the Lakers may have mistreated him.

There seems to be a rift between Wayne and the Lakers, possibly stemming from comments he made on an episode of FS1's Undisputed in November 2023. As a frequent guest on the show, Wayne shared his thoughts on the Lakers' chances for the 2023-24 season, expressing optimism about their potential for success. However, he also stated that in order for the team to achieve championship status now and in the future, they would need to part ways with AD.

Wayne explained that the Lakers had to let go of Davis in order to become contenders. He mentioned that Davis, who is 30 years old, needed to be traded because he's AD, plain and simple. Wayne suggested that by trading Davis and acquiring some good players, the team could thrive without necessarily needing another superstar. He pointed out that having LeBron James on the team was already a huge asset.

When Wayne appeared on the show on February 2, he mentioned that the Lakers wouldn't be able to find someone to replace Anthony Davis on the court.

Wayne enjoyed watching the Lakers’ game against the Charlotte Hornets on December 28, sitting courtside with his sons - Dwayne, 15, Kameron, 14, and Neal, also 14.

He is a proud father to his sons, Dwayne (with Sarah Vivan), Kameron (with Lauren London), and Neal (with Nivea Hamilton). In addition, Wayne is also the father of a 25-year-old daughter, Reginae, whom he shares with his ex-wife Antonia “Toya” Johnson.

While Wayne expressed no specific details about his alleged mistreatment, he seemed to suggest that it may have been related to his remarks about Davis.
