Derick E. Hingle / USA TODAY Sports
Anthony Davis emerged as one of the NBA's up-and-coming superstars last year, but the 21-year-old is expected to make an even bigger leap this season.
After a slow start to his preseason (27 points on 12-of-29 shooting through three games), Davis broke out in a big way Tuesday night against the Rockets, posting 26 points on 9-of-11 shooting to go with eight rebounds, four blocks and a steal.
Davis was up to the task from the opening tip, dominating the first quarter on both ends of the court, which included this beautiful catch, spin and slam off a Jrue Holiday pass.
That's more like it, 'Brow.
