Anthony Davis has really come into his own as a leader on the Los Angeles Lakers and the franchise is trusting him to lead the organization during the 2024-25 season alongside LeBron James.
Although James remains one of the best players in the league, there’s been a concerted effort by the Lakers to lean on Davis more and he’s responded with one of the best seasons of his career so far. Not only is Davis the anchor on the defensive end, he’s also assumed more responsibility on the offense and currently leads the team in scoring per game.
