Chris Erskine: Clippers’ Glen Davis is cooking up a healthier lifestyle

No man is an island, but some are continents.

Known fondly as “Big Baby,” the Clippers’ Glen Davis weighs in at nearly 300 pounds and measures 290 feet down the foul poles.

A presence off the bench, with an energy that ignites teammates and fans, Big Baby is an immovable beast, the kind of power forward-center hybrid who adds a different dynamic.

He’s also a hustle guy who’s not shy to set a screen or hit the hardwood. Indeed, the affable Louisiana State product was part of what might have been a turning point in the Clippers’ impressive late-season run.
