#1 Anthony Davis - New Orleans Pelicans

The skill, wingspan, and versatility that Anthony Davis is blessed, he should be a perennial MVP candidate. Unfortunately, health hasn't been on his side and the Pelicans have never been able to assemble a consistently competitive squad around him.

Davis has played five seasons in the league but he's still only 23 years old. Every one of the five years, he's improved his averages. However, last year was the first season that he could play more than 70 games.

For years to come, Davis will be No. 1 on this list simply because of the talent he possesses and the potential he still has. When Alvin Gentry became the Head Coach of the Pelicans, he even added a three-point shot to his already lethal arsenal.
