Currently, Dallas holds the 11th position in the Western Conference, just missing out on the Play-In Tournament due to the Phoenix Suns having the advantage in tiebreakers. On the other hand, the Lakers have secured the fourth position, trailing the Denver Nuggets by one game for third place and the Rockets by two games for second.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_1h3v2cwqr\">One significant factor in the Lakers&#8217; success is the natural fit of LeBron James in his more accustomed position. Previously, Davis preferred playing in position 4, which NBA veteran Marcus Morris regards as LeBron&#8217;s more suited role at this point in his career.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_nh01s6b0m\"><strong>READ MORE: NBA insider claims Mavericks &#8216;broke&#8217; Luka Doncic&#8217;s heart by trading him to Lakers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div data-mm-id=\"_ac788h4h9\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"style_120ff32\"><\/p>\n<figure data-id=\"_ac788h4h9\" class=\"base_4xyhi9\" data-mm-type=\"image\">\n            <canvas class=\"style_1e28o3x-o_O-initial_9vayoh\"><\/canvas>\n            <picture class=\"base_1emrqjj-o_O-initial_fzbddc-o_O-style_1a1csmw\"><source><\/source><source><\/source><source><\/source><\/picture>\n            <noscript>\n                <picture class=\"base_1emrqjj\"><source  media=\"(max-width: 719px)\"><\/source><br \/><source  media=\"(max-width: 1079px)\"><\/source><br \/><source  media=\"(min-width: 1080px)\"><\/source>\n                <\/picture>\n            <\/noscript><br \/>\n        <\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"wrapper_brpv6a\"><figcaption class=\"tagStyle_1ulimm5-o_O-text_1j8vahs\">Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (77) reacts to a foul call against the Chicago Bulls during the first half at Crypto.com Arena.

Smith concurred with Morris, stating, &#8220;I think that that was an excellent analysis on the part of Marcus Morris. Luka Doncic coming to the team, being able to draw attention from defenses is going to free up others to shoot 3s. And one of those people is going to include LeBron James, who\u2019s essentially your wideout because he gets to operate more in open space. He gets to play bully ball when he wants to because he\u2019s 6&#8217;9&#8243;, 260, or he gets to step outside because he\u2019s improved his 3-point shot. And oh, by the way, he\u2019s having more uncontested three-point shots than he ever has had in a Lakers uniform.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_ekyhzfat0\">James has indeed been thriving, thanks to Doncic&#8217;s playmaking, averaging 26.3 PPG and 9.5 RPG while shooting 51.8% from the field and 36.7% from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_k3g7sxn94\">Meanwhile, Davis has been sidelined with an adductor strain, missing all but one game for the Mavericks.
