Lakers’ Jake LaRavia shows off gnarly wound suffered during Sixers game
NY Post
It seems Lakers power forward Jake LaRavia might be in need of an emergency trip to the dentist this week.
The 24-year-old showed on Sunday that after he was hit in the face during Los Angeles’ road matchup with the 76ers, he nearly lost one of his front teeth.
In a snap shared on his Instagram page, LaRavia’s chomper looked like it was hanging on by a thread. Blood could be seen pooling around the gum as well.
The injury occurred in the first quarter of the big matchup at Xfinity Mobile Arena, when LaRavia was clocked in the mouth. He immediately covered his face in pain and bolted to the locker room.
He ultimately returned to the game, and helped lead the Lakers to a 112-108 victory, logging four points and two rebounds in 17 minutes.
Afterward, he appeared to be in good spirits despite the grisly wound, as he wrote in a caption on the picture, “Mood.”
