Just a few days ago, Anthony Davis looked like a top 5 player in the entire world. The former Kentucky Wildcat dropped 30 points, 23 rebounds, five assists, and four blocks for the Los Angeles Lakers in a massive Game 1 road victory over the defending champion Golden State Warriors. Davis shot 14-23 overall from the field and outshined both LeBron James and Steph Curry as he dominated both ends of the floor.
But just 48 hours later in the exact same building, Davis looked like a complete shell of himself. During Thursday night’s Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals, Davis was stifled from start to finish.
