Anthony Davis
Anthony Davis would look to re assert his authority this season

The 3x NBA All-Star, New Orleans Pelicans’ Power Forward, Anthony Davis was selected to represent USA in 2012 Olympics alongside LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade and other bigshots of the game and it was only his rookie year. Davis is that good!

This 2012 1st overall pick is a pool of talent. He is unstoppable in the post and is exceptional on defense. During the summer of 2015, Davis also added the ability to shoot 3-pointers to his options as well! What more does a team want! A 6’10” leader with the utmost potential!

Well, there is one area in which Davis couldn’t keep up until last season – injuries. Ankles, shoulders, knees, back, you name it. Davis has been injury-prone throughout his career. During the 2015-16 season, Davis was ruled out for the rest of the season in March due to an injured left knee and a torn labrum in his left shoulder.

Davis is still young but with his frequent encounters with so many injuries, his career may have been cut short for a great extend. With Buddy Hield coming to Pelicans, Davis has a stronger more resourceful team and he must come back better, stronger than ever.
