Kobe Bryant will go down as one of the greatest players in the history of basketball and he’s a tough critic. So if he’s singing your praises then you must be doing something right.
via Bleacher Report:
According to Kobe Bryant, 21-year-old phenom, Anthony Davis is on track to be grouped among that esteemed group of power forwards when his career comes to a close.
Following the Los Angeles Lakers’ 107-102 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, Bryant heaped some serious praise on Davis, according to the Orange County Register‘s Bill Oram:
“He’s an athletic Pau Gasol. That’s the best way I can put it. He can be one of the greatest power forwards who has ever played”
Kobe isn’t the first big player to sing Davis’ praises. Kevin Durant also recently said that Davis is on his way to receiving an MVP award. The young PF has definitely been playing at an incredible rate, filling the stat sheets and working on both ends of the floor. Davis is playing his way into the MVP conversation behind averages of 24.8 points, 13.0 rebounds, 4.2 blocks, 2.5 steals and 2.2 assists while shooting 51.8 percent from the field.
