10 – Anthony Davis – New Orleans Pelicans

Stats: 32.1 points, 11.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.8 steals , 2.8 blocks

Record: 7-12

Previous Ranking: Honorable Mention

Anthony Davis is literally carrying the New Orleans Pelicans on his shoulders. Davis is averaging the most points per game, and most blocks per game in the NBA.

While we have seen some video game stat lines from the 6-foot-11 power forward, the thing that separates the all time greats from the rest is being able to carry a team to the postseason.

With starting point guard Jrue Holiday back in the rotation, the Pelicans have some catching up to do if they want to try to sneak into the 8th seed.
