Can he be an MVP candidate?

Yes, Anthony Davis is now a center. After DeMarcus Cousins went down with injury, he shifted over to the center spot and went on an absolute tear. He had a few games this year where he scored 45+ points along with 15+ rebounds, which is just astonishing.

He is another two-way player who will dominate on both sides of the floor. With Cousins leaving, and the signing of Julius Randle, it looks like Davis will continue to play the center position. Davis could be an MVP candidate next year, however, the Pelicans probably won't achieve the necessary level of team success for him to be in consideration. Last year, he put up 28.1 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks per game.
