One of the greatest NBA teams in NBA history may be the Los Angeles Lakers. However, the Purple and Gold are unquestionably not acting like one during the 2022–23 NBA season.
With the NBA All-Star weekend right around the corner, fans are waiting for the team to turn the season around.
In hopes of doing so, general manager Rob Pelinka made a few trades around the NBA Trade Deadline to get more help around the organization’s duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
Evidently, Pelinka made these trades by taking consultation from both AD and LBJ. Speaking of these trades, one player that the Lakers acquired via trade was Mo Bamba. The Lakers traded Patrick Beverley to welcome Mo Bamba to the roster.
Mo Bamba Has Already Come Up With A Killer Name For LeBron James And Anthony Davis’ Duo
It has been just a few days since Bamba became teammates with the dynamic duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis. But it seems like the former Orlando Magic player has already made a great bond with the superstars of the team.
Keeping that in mind, it was recently revealed that Mo Bamba has already thought of a nickname for the LBJ-AD duo.
Mo Bamba says of the Lakers’ rush to find continuity with a new group, that he thinks it should be easy “when you have 3-6 Mafia. … That’s my nickname for LeBron and AD.”

When you have 3-6 Mafia. … That’s my nickname for LeBron and AD.
The health of LeBron James and Anthony Davis’ duo could make or break the season for the Purple and Gold. As of now, Davis is struggling a bit to find his form. On the other hand, there is a huge injury scare lingering around LeBron James for the rest of the season.
So even though Mo Bamba gave a killer nickname to the duo, there aren’t many games left for them to prove it to the fans. If they cannot qualify for the postseason in back-to-back seasons, it could certainly ruin the chemistry between the dynamic duo.
