Anthony Davis has put himself in the MVP conversation after his consistent run of incredible performances
Anthony Davis scored 55 points to go along with 17 rebounds and 3 blocks, extending the Lakers‘ win streak to 3 and going 8-2 in their last 10. AD has silenced all of his naysayers by playing at an MVP level in the last 10 games whilst pushing the Lakers’ record to only 2 games below .500.
He has the carried the major offensive load and has also been the team’s top defender during this stretch of games. He will have to continue this dominant play for them to even have a chance at making the playoffs this season. Their schedule isn’t getting any easier especially with LeBron James approaching his 38th birthday this month. It’ll be to be up to AD and the others to pick up the slack and take this team to where it desires to be.
Anthony Davis is a part of an elite club of lakers big men which includes Shaquille O’Neal and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Both of whom won at least 3 championships to go along with multiple Finals MVPs. It may be harsh, but if the 2017 All-Star Game MVP wants to remembered as an all-time Laker legend, he’ll have to live up to the standards set by them and continue producing at this all-time level for the foreseeable future.
