Pelicans' Anthony Davis: Excels in Monday's loss in Salt Lake City
Davis finished with 36 points (12-23 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 11-14 FT), 17 rebounds, three assists, three steals and three blocked shots across 41 minutes in Monday's 108-100 loss against the Jazz.
Analysis:
Davis had another giant performance with DeMarcus Cousins (ankle) missing in action again. He is averaging 33.4 points, 16.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.7 blocked shots and 1.7 steals per game over the past three outings. The Pelicans are fighting to keep their slim playoff hopes alive, and as long as they're not eliminated Davis should continue to log big minutes.
