The narrative surrounding Anthony Davis both prior to and at the time of being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers was that he couldn’t get it done in the playoffs. In seven seasons with the New Orleans Pelicans, Davis reached the postseason just twice and made it out of the first round only once.
However, that narrative was completely flipped on its head during the 2020 playoffs. Davis was absolutely dominant during the Lakers championship run. He averaged 27.7 points and 9.7 rebounds, to go along with 57.1% shooting from the field, 38.3% behind the arc and 83.
