Anthony Davis and the LA Lakers play the Toronto Raptors

On May 2, 2021, Anthony Davis had a rough game against the Toronto Raptors at home. The No. 1 pick in the 2012 draft had returned from injury 10 days before the game and had a couple of good performances since returning.

However, AD scored only 12 points in the LA Lakers' seven-point loss. He made only five of his 16 attempts from the field, missed all three of his shots from the 3-point line and made two of his three free throws.

Davis played 33 minutes in that matchup and had a minus-11 Plus/Minus for the night as the LA Lakers dropped their third straight game.

He bounced back the following night, though, scoring 25 points and grabbing seven rebounds in a win over the Denver Nuggets.

Anthony Davis

The LA Lakers were on a high to start the 2019-20 NBA season. With Anthony Davis and a group of veterans joining the team, championship aspirations were high for Frank Vogel's team, and the unit certainly had been delivering since the start of the season.

On Jan. 20, 2020, the LA Lakers were set to visit the Boston Celtics at the TD Garden and put on display their 34-8 record. However, the Celtics had different plans and took a 32-point win at home.

In that loss, Anthony Davis scored nine points and grabbed just four rebounds in 22 minutes. He also had five fouls and a minus-24 Plus/Minus.

No. 1: LA Lakers vs New York Knicks | January 7th, 2020

New York Knicks vs LA Lakers.

Anthony Davis and the LA Lakers were dominant in the West during the shortened 2019-20 NBA season, AD's first in the Staples Center.

Anthony Davis has had several games in his NBA career that were cut short because of injuries or simple precautions. On Jan. 7, 2020, he had one of those against the New York Knicks.

He played 28 minutes in the LA Lakers' 30-point win, but a scary fall in the third quarter cut his night short. At that moment, the LA Lakers were winning by 19 points and Anthony Davis had scored five points after missing six of his eight shots from the field.

With the game's trend, he would've probably played just a bit of the fourth quarter anyway, but the team's success was already secure, despite a rough offensive night for AD.
