Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis was celebrating his team's fourth quarter lead over the Los Angeles Clippers at the Staples Center on Sunday night but in the process he unfortunately spread some germs. The Lakers were up 99-87 with 6:29 left to go in the game when an excited Davis licked his hands before congratulating his teammates.

After Davis licked his hand, which of course had touched the ball (which touches the hands of everyone!), he immediately high-fived teammate Avery Bradley. Bradley then quickly touched his hands to his mouth creating a germ assist no one would want. 

The sharing of germs did not stop there, as Bradley and Davis both went on to then quickly high-five LeBron James.

There was no hand sanitizer or soap in sight. So what started with a lick of the hand from Davis turned into a rather gross series from L.A. 

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Davis has looked back at this video with some regrets.

"It's disgusting," Davis said, adding that he did have a moment where he thought maybe he should change this routine he has with Bradley that starts with licking his own hand.

The Lakers went on to win 112-103 and improve their record to 49-13, as the Clippers now stand at 43-20. 

The rapid spreading of coronavirus, which is heavily impacting the sports world, has many leagues and tournaments around the world deciding to cancel games or play with no fans in the stands to prevent the spreading of the virus. The NBA released a statement over possible future plans to adhere with coronavirus concerns.

With many states going into a state of emergency and countries around the globe cancelling events, the NBA has been considering what their coronavirus plan will be. Having an infectious disease specialist, identifying a specific facility to test for coronavirus and limiting the number of people interacting with players and playing games with no fans in attendance are some of the cautions the league might make teams take.
