With a 25-28 season record, the Los Angeles Lakers are in 13th place in the Western Conference. The return of Anthony Davis has sparked a fire amongst the team as the Lakers have won back-to-back games since his return. However, some fans are more worried about the game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on their upcoming schedule. LeBron James and co. will end a five-game road trip as they go to New Orleans to face the Pelicans, before hosting the Thunder on their home court.?

Fans worry about Shannon Sharpe being in attendance
The last time Shannon Sharpe sat courtside at a Lakers game, he ended up getting into an altercation with the entire Memphis Grizzlies roster. That altercation quickly shifted momentum from Sharpe addressing the Grizzlies team to getting into a heated argument with Ja Morant?s father, Tee Morant.?

I like Shannon but he shouldn’t be allowed back at an nba game for the rest of the year, his behavior was inappropriate and has no place at a basketball game

Many fans in the comments section speculated that the only reason Shannon Sharpe will be in attendance is that LeBron James might be breaking the all-time scoring record. While others even mentioned who they wanted to see Sharpe fight next.?
Even LeBron James came to the aid of Sharpe
What started the whole altercation last time around was Shannon Sharpe jawing at Dillon Brooks with Brooks then jawing back.
The whole argument escalated quickly with security having to step in to separate everyone. Even LeBron James rushed back to the court from the locker room to come to Shannon Sharpe?s aid.
