Jared Dudley says Anthony Davis will ‘take the torch next year’ for the Lakers

The Lakers won’t re-assemble for training camp until late September, but that hasn’t stopped Jared Dudley from firing off some of his preseason predictions. During his exit interview he not only essentially guaranteed that he’d return to the roster he won the 2020 title with, but he also had one other forecast for teammate Anthony Davis.

While talking about how LeBron James was the most consistent teammate he’s ever played with, Dudley took a pause to remind people that while LeBron is getting older, he also has a pretty big reinforcement waiting in the wings.
