NBA World Reacts To Anthony Davis’ Performance In Heat-Mavs Game
Here’s what people were saying about Davis:
StatMuse: “Anthony Davis vs Heat: 17 PTS 17 REB 3 BLK Only the Thunder have a longer active win streak than the Mavs right now.”
Noah Weber: “Anthony Davis is moving so much better now than he was at the beginning of the season. Mavericks were extra careful when it came to bringing him back from that calf strain, and rightfully so.”
@Mavs_FFL: “MAVS ARE 3X BETTER WITH ANTHONY DAVIS”
Abby Jones: “Anthony Davis and Cooper Flagg connect in the clutch.”
Grant Afseth: “It’s not a big sample size, but there’s been a lot to like lately with a combo of Ryan Nembhard, Cooper Flagg, and Anthony Davis, especially with Davis playing the five. Having a steady decision-making guard and quality spacing make a big difference for Flagg and Davis.”
@TheMrDouglass: “No player on earth scares me when they play hard more than Anthony Davis. I just expect an injury to happen when he hustles”
Michael Kaiser: “Anthony Davis is a two way monster I guess it took some time for him to get into shape, clutch bucket and block”
@AustinDobbins13: “Anthony Davis is still a very, very good basketball player”
