Anthony Davis is one of only two Lakers players averaging 20+ points per game during the 2023 Playoffs, so far he is scoring 22 PPG while LeBron James leads with 24.7 points.

The Los Angeles Lakers won the first game of the series on the road 128-112, although they lost the second game 93-103 things were different at home during the third game where the Lakers won 111-101.

But Davis is not playing as people expected, some critics have classified him as ‘soft’ and somehow his weak game would be a way to request a trade for the upcoming season.
