“Does Things That Some of My Other Great Teammates are Not Capable of”: LeBron James Lauds Anthony Davis

Every superstar needs good teammates to be successful in the NBA. LeBron James has been in the league for 17 years and he has enjoyed a lot of success in the league. But it wouldn’t have been possible without his teammates.

Anthony Davis, who joined the Lakers last summer, has been phenomenal for the franchise. He proved his worth yet again in game 2 of the playoffs, where he led the team to victory over the Blazers. AD is one of the better two-way players in the league. He averaged 26.1 points for the purple and gold this season.

Along with his offensive prowess, Davis has been lethal on defense as well. The 7-time all-star is vital to Lakers’ success in the playoffs this season.

The LeBron James and Anthony Davis connection

Anthony Davis was a superstar on his own during his stint with the Pelicans. But playing with LeBron James has taken his game to another level.

LeBron was asked about AD being his teammate in the post-match interview. James replied, “I have had some great teammates in my career, he is one of those unicorns.

“He does things that some of my other great teammates are not capable of doing. But in the same sense, I have played with Dwyane Wade and he could do some things that AD is not capable of doing and I also played with Kyrie Irving, he can do some things that D-wade and AD is not capable of doing. So I have had the luxury of playing with some great players and that’s just three of them.”

It is evident that James is happy to have AD as his teammate. Each player has their own strengths, and AD’s strength is to be a great two-way player.

After struggling for a while in the Bubble games. it feels like Davis is finally back in rhythm. Davis had back to back excellent game for LA in the first two games of the playoffs.

But the job is not done yet, the series is tied at 1 game apiece and could very well go either way when it’s all said and done.
