Anthony Davis has 25-point double-double in Lakers debut
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis scored 25 points (8-of-21 field goals, 9-of-14 free throws) with 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks, and 3 turnovers in 32.4 minutes of a 112-102 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday.
Davis missed both of his 3-point attempts and was uncharacteristically inefficient in his first game in purple and gold, but he made up for it with a solid all-around effort. The big man should fare better when the Lakers aren't facing one of the best defenses in the NBA. Their next game is at home on Friday versus the Utah Jazz.
Davis scored 46.0 FanDuel points in his Lakers debut. numberFire's models project him for 25.4 points, 11.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.5 steals, 2.6 blocks, and 0.7 3-pointers per game over the rest of the year.
