Will the Pelicans make a run this year?
It’s crazy to think, but in only his third year in the league, Anthony Davis is already an All-Star and FIBA Gold Medal winner. That World Cup experience over the Summer seems to have given him a little extra motivation, because the shot block machine and highlight reel has been blazing his path to start out the season, averaging a double-double in 10 games so far (25.5 PPG & 11.4 RPG). Dunks aren’t all he can do, he can block shots, set up his own jumper and singlehandedly carry the team during the last seconds of the game for the win.
For those not watching him on NBA League Pass or missed his dunks on SportsCenter, watch Austin Rivers and Jimmer Fredette speak on their teammate in between highlights of the damage he’s cause on the court this season.
