Anthony Davis had arguably the most efficient season for a 21 year old in NBA history just two years ago. He was the darling of the league, the favored building block of NBA GMs, and a legitimate MVP candidate according to the esteemed Zach Lowe. All of that, even in retrospect, made sense. Davis was going to be unleashed in Alvin Gentry’s go-go offense and AD had posted an absurd 30.8 PER the year before with the far less respected Monty Williams calling the shots. The list of players to ever post a 30+ PER is stacked with Hall of Famers and future Hall of Famers.
Anthony Davis will carry less of the offense, be more efficient thanks to DeMarcus Cousins and Rajon Rondo
