Cleveland Cavaliers v New Orleans Pelicans
Anthony Davis

Anthony Davis is the best big man in the NBA. He has a profound impact on both ends of the game. Last season he averaged 28.0 PPG, 11.8 RPG, 2.2 BPG and 1.3 SPG. He has averaged field goal percentage of 51% for his five seasons in the NBA. He improved his three-point shooting significantly this season to 39%. He can run in transition for alley-oops and chase down guards on the fast break.

Also, most guards are not going to think about coming inside the paint because of the presence of Anthony Davis. Although he has been to the playoffs only once and got swept by the Warriors, he averaged 31.5 PPG, 11.0 RPG and 3.0 BPG for the first four games of his playoff career. The only thing that Anthony Davis needs to prove is that he can lead his team to the playoffs consistently.
