NBA Team of the Week (Jan. 29 - Feb. 4)

Power Forward - Anthony Davis

Anthony Davis

Team Record: 1-2

Player Stats in the Week: 34.7 ppg, 10.7 rpg, 2.7 bpg on 49% shooting, 46% from threes, -1.7 bpm, 0.6 net rating, 18.8 player impact estimate

First time in our team of the week this season, we have a player with a losing team record and a negative box plus-minus. Antetokounmpo taking our small forward's spot and weak competition also helped Davis' case for selection.

With DeMarcus Cousins out for the remainder of this season, the workload on Davis' shoulders has increased exponentially from season's 28.3% usage rate to 39.7% usage rate over the last week. Even still, he has been performing very efficiently.

Although they should have beaten the Sacramento Kings, Davis' performances over the last week meant his inclusion was certainly justified!

Other Contenders for this position this week:

Kevin Durant (1-2, 27 ppg on 63% shooting, 43% threes)

LaMarcus Aldridge (1-2, 25.7 ppg on 60% shooting)
