Anthony Davis vs. Memphis Grizzlies

Anthony Davis didn’t deliver one of his usual dominant performances against the Memphis Grizzlies, as foul trouble limited his minutes after picking up a fifth personal foul in the third quarter.

However, the nine-time All-Star still made a strong impact, especially with his aggressive play on offense after checking back into the game in the fourth quarter.

In addition to knocking down two crucial 3-pointers, Davis posted another well-rounded stat line and recorded a double-double.

The former NBA champion finished with 21 points on 6 of 16 shooting, including 2 of 3 from beyond the arc, along with 14 rebounds, three assists and three blocks in 32 minutes.
