9. Anthony Davis, Los Angeles Lakers
13 Oct
2019

Everybody has known for years that Anthony Davis is a phenomenal player, but he never had anyone close to his level to play at his side.  That was until he joined the Los Angeles Lakers and suited up next to LeBron James.  He is entering his fifth year as a Laker, and in his first, his desire to leave New Orleans proved accurate as he won the NBA Title with LeBron.  Davis could easily win more, but we think that with compounding injuries, the Elite Period is over.  WIth that being said, Davis has many of the stats and accolades the Hall will look for, and unlike some of the others who are ahead of him, he carries no baggage..  He will need to be healthy and win another title to remain on the right side of the HOF debate but he might not need it.  Pre 2019-20 Rank: #11, Pre 2020-21 Rank #8, Pre-2021-22 Rank: #9.Pre-2021-22 Rank: #9.
