The post immediately went viral as social media jokes were made comparing the entrees to the meals “Fyre Fest” distributed.</p><p>“It’s actually not that bad man, to be honest with you,” Daniels tells ClutchPoints from inside the bubble. “I think my picture that went viral really took everything out of context.”</p><p>He then went on to explain how he really feels about the bubble.</p><p>“You can tell the NBA put a lot of thought and a lot of money into it,” Daniels said. “Once you get out of the quarantine process, it’s really dope.”</p><p>Restarting the 2019-20 season didn’t seem feasible a few months ago.</p><p>“I remember two months ago, I really didn’t think the season was going to come back,” he said. “But to see from that moment to now, to see all the things that they’ve done to get to the bubble and everything that’s in the bubble, I think it’s amazing.”</p><p>There are sure to be flaws in the bubble, but the NBA is trying their best to accommodate the players while keeping them safe. One way they are doing so is with daily Covid-19 testing. Many players have stated that the Covid-19 test is very painful. Understanding the discomfort the test provides, it’s reasonable to question if getting one daily is realistic.</p><p>“I literally hated it,” Daniels said. “We had to get tested like every other day [in Denver] and it hurt. It really hurts putting the thing up your nose and in the back of your throat is weird.”</p><p>Daniels says the test in the bubble is just a mouth and nasal swab, not the invasive procedure. “If we had to do it everyday where they stick it all the way through your nose, I think guys would definitely have a problem with that,” Daniels said. Clearly the NBA is invested in providing safety, as well as comfort, for the players.</p><p>Over the past few weeks, the world has been in a pretty tense state. The nation is dealing with a deadly pandemic as well as racial injustices.</p><p>The NBA has given players the approval to express their frustrations with the inequalities Black people are enduring by allowing them to choose from 28 different social injustice statement options to wear on the back of their jerseys. Troy Daniels said he selected <i>Black Lives Matter</i> as his first choice and <i>Say Her Name</i> as his second.</p><p>“It’s unprecedented times,” Daniels said. “It’s one of the biggest movements ever. So, I want to shed light on that. It’s very important to me.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><script type="text/javascript">      window._taboola = window._taboola || [];      _taboola.push({          article: 'auto',          ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'      });      !function (e, f, u, i) {          if (!document.getElementById(i)) {              e.async = 1;              e.src = u;              e.id = i;              f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);          }      }(document.createElement('script'),          document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],          'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',          'tb_loader_script');      if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }</script></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>

Daniels hasn’t exactly been one of the most significant players on the Lakers’ rotation this term, but this is not something James takes into consideration. In his eyes, they’re all his teammates, regardless of the role they play for the squad.</p><p>After signing with the Lakers in the summer, Daniels has been asked to fulfill a minor role in head coach Frank Vogel’s rotation this season. Currently, the 6-foot-4 shooting guard is averaging just <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/d/danietr01.html#all_per_game">4.7 points</a>, 1.2 rebounds, and 1.1 3-pointers in 12.0 minutes off L.A.’s bench.</p><p>There has been a lot of talk regarding the Lakers’ push to add more pieces before the Feburary trade deadline passes.

Frank Vogel’s squad was able to make easy work of the visiting <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/utah-jazz">Utah Jazz</a> on Friday night with <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/LeBron-James/b1a9094f">LeBron James</a> coming three rebounds shy of a triple-double, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/Anthony-Davis/b77109e3">Anthony Davis</a> having a block party in the paint, and Troy Daniels showing his shooting prowess.</p><p>Following the win over <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/Mike-Conley/a18208f7">Mike Conley</a>’s Jazz, Vogel had incredibly high praised Daniels. The new Lakers coach believes that Daniels, who went 4-for-8 from beyond the arc, is the team’s best shooter.</p><p>“He’s earned a spot in the rotation with his ability to shoot the basketball,” Vogel said of Daniels after the game. “He’s arguably the best shooter on the team. He’s the kind of player you want put around LeBron James and Anthony Davis. He works really hard on the defensive end, so he pulls his own weight on that side of the floor, and when he’s out there, he not only brings gravity but when the help comes, he’s able to punish defenses, and he did both of those tonight.”</p><p>Daniels played 21 minutes off the bench for the Lakers during their home opener at Staples Center and didn’t disappoint. The veteran guard finished with 15 points going 5-for-9 from the field while also adding three rebounds and a steal to his stat line.</p><p>“I think it’s just a shooter’s instinct to create space for yourself,” Daniels said.</p><p>Although the Jazz were expected to be a force to be reckoned with in the Western Conference this season, they have struggled right out of the gate. The retooled <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/oklahoma-city-thunder">Oklahoma City Thunder</a> almost pulled out the win over Utah in their season opener, and tonight they looked outmatched against a Lakers team looking to bounce back with a vengeance following a loss to the L.A. Clippers earlier this week.</p><p>The final score, 95-86, doesn’t dictate what happened on Friday night. The Lakers were in control for the majority of the contest with LeBron, Davis, and Daniels leading the way.</p><p>On Sunday, this revamped Lakers squad will get back to work against the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/charlotte-hornets">Charlotte Hornets</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><iframe>    <script type="text/javascript">        window._taboola = window._taboola || [];        _taboola.push({            article: 'auto',            ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'        });        !function (e, f, u, i) {            if (!document.getElementById(i)) {                e.async = 1;                e.src = u;                e.id = i;                f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);            }        }(document.createElement('script'),            document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],            'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',            'tb_loader_script');        if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }    </script>    </iframe></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>
