Anthony Davis shook the walls of Crypto.com Arena on Sunday night with a dominant and downright historic game featuring 27 points, 25 rebounds, 5 assists, 7 steals, and 3 blocks.
He helped his Los Angeles Lakers sail past a short-handed Minnesota Timberwolves team and also impressed even the harshest critic.
Speaking on “Run It Back,” former NBA star Chandler Parsons praised Davis after his big game.
“This is what we all want to see all the time, because [Anthony Davis] is capable of doing this consistently,” Parsons said.

If Davis really did perform like this consistently, the Lakers could be favorites to go all the way to the NBA Finals.
When Davis is healthy and functioning like he did on Sunday, he seems impossible to stop.
It is true that the Timberwolves didn’t have both Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert, but Naz Reid isn’t a small man and Davis still cruised past him.
Davis has been on a great run for most of the season and has put together a season average of 24.8 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 3.6 assists.
With such amazing numbers from Davis, why haven’t the Lakers been better all season?
Even with Davis putting up historic totals and LeBron James continuing to shine so bright at his age, the Lakers have been struggling to stay in Play-In contention.
This a reminder that a team needs more than two All-Stars to be championship contenders.
That being said, the rest of the roster has been vigorous lately and that has earned the Lakers some very important wins.
They are the ninth seed in the West but they are looking more confident and cohesive and fans are getting excited about what could come next.
