To Man Who Discovered Anthony Davis, Pelicans' Playoff Run Is Stuff of Dreams

Daniel Poneman has seen enough. The young man credited with discovering New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis took in Game 2 of the Pelicans' first-round series against the Golden State Warriors and realized there's no need to fly to New Orleans for Game 3 or 4 or any other part of the series.

The Pelicans' 97-87 loss was the first time he had seen Davis play live—unless you count pickup games in Davis' native Chicago—since he sat in the Big Easy's Superdome and watched Davis win the 2012 NCAA championship with Kentucky. That meant it was his first and only time seeing Davis live in an NBA uniform.
