9. Anthony Davis, Los Angeles Lakers
Anthony Davis has been one of the most talented players in the NBA since coming into the league in 2012. His defense was there on day 1, but I’m not sure many people thought he would be the force that he is on the offensive end.
On offense, it isn’t a ton of players if any that can guard him 1-on-1. On defense, a lot of players think they are by him until his long arm reaches over them and blocks their shot. He can get shots most players wouldn’t. I’ve seen him jump late, but because of his athleticism and long arms he still gets to the shot.
If he switches on to you in a pick-and-roll he can move his feet, making guards have to work to get by him. Davis can rebound with the best of them, averaging 10.4 rebounds per game for his career. Everyone knows what kind of beast he is on the offensive end, but that isn’t the only end of the court you have to worry about The Brow on.
