Anthony Davis has a season-high 23 rebounds and his 7 steals tonight are the most by a Lakers player since Lou Williams in 2015.

Anthony Davis reminds everyone a few times a season why he was considered generational back in 2012 when he came into the league. He doesn’t get his credit as a top five PF talent ever.

Anthony Davis’ 24 rebounds are the most by a Laker since Dwight Howard had 26 against Denver on Jan. 6, 2013.

How many shots at the rim did Wolves take? How many shots at the rim did Lakers take?
If you watched that game and didn’t see how Lakers entire offense was built around AD and Bron attacking the rim then I don’t know what to tell you.
And yeah, Wolves shot 22 more 3s too. https://t.co/Se3OMVjLh3

Jaxson Hayes on AD’s 27-25-5-7-3:
“He knows the game so well and his timing on everything is so good … that’s one of the best to do it right there.”

Steph would 3peat with AD if he was on the Lakers instead of LeBron.
Easy bubble ring in 2020
