Anthony Davis says the plan was for him to play more center this season, and will be something the Lakers ‘look at’ next year too

Looking back to the preseason and the beginning of training camp, the quotes and excitement surrounding Anthony Davis potentially playing center feels like it came in an entirely different season.

For those that forgot, Davis stepped to the mic as the first interview on Media Day and said he expected to play center this season. The qualifiers he added after that statement feel a lot more relevant in hindsight but the message was still the same in the moment.

“There was the expectation and that was discussed, and I expect to play center,” Davis said back in September.
