Yep. He's the most valuable commodity in basketball right now. The next 10 years are his to dominate.
Freak of Nature: Anthony Davis Will Be Bigger, Stronger and Better Next Season
By Adam Fromal , National NBA Featured Columnist June 21, 2014
Anthony Davis is not fair.
The big man began the 2013-14 season at 6'10", 220 pounds and proceeded to thoroughly dominate the league, both before and after his 21st birthday. Yes, despite averaging 20.8 points, 10.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.3 steals and an NBA-high 2.8 blocks per game, he still gained the ability to enjoy the full extent of Bourbon Street's appeal near the end of the campaign.
Now, he's going to be bigger, stronger and better.
"I’m up to 238 right now. It’s all muscle, and that’s what I need," the unibrowed New Orleans Pelican told radio broadcaster Sean Kelley during an interview that will air Monday on Pelicans.com, as relayed by NBA.com.
"I want to get stronger, so that when I post up, it’s a lot easier for me," continued Davis. "I think it’s going to translate to the season, just my mentality, knowing that I’m a lot stronger and a lot better. It’s going to make me more aggressive."
But is it only muscle weight that he's adding? Nope.
After revealing that he might not be "only" 6'10" anymore, Davis was asked about whether he was still growing vertically.
"I hope not," he explained. "I don’t want to be seven feet. It just (sounds) weird, to be a 7-footer. I’d like to be 6'10", but if I grow, you can’t really do anything about it. You can’t help it."

Talk about a problem that half the NBA would like to be experiencing. This is sort of like Tim Duncan playing center but insisting that he's listed as a power forward throughout his career or Kevin Garnett checking in at 6'11" even though he routinely looks to be about an inch taller than legitimate 7-footers.
Davis, just like KG, could very well hit that 7'0" mark but still be listed a few inches shy.
Oh, and he's working on his jumper:I’m definitely working on the corner three-pointer. (Also) more post moves, a consistent mid-range jump shot, ball-handling. Those are the things I’m working on right now to get better. But at the same time, touching up on the things I’m pretty good at.Again, Davis is not fair.
During his second season in the league, he made his first All-Star squad and earned the No. 5 spot in my NBA 200 rankings, trailing only Stephen Curry, Chris Paul, LeBron James and Kevin Durant. As Dan Favale wrote for Bleacher Report, "We know enough to understand that his ceiling two, three, five years into the future makes him, at worst, the NBA's second-best building block right now."
His lanky wingspan isn't going away. Neither are his incredible knack for defensive play, terrifying traps out on the perimeter, positional versatility, jaw-dropping athleticism, ability to switch onto virtually any offensive player and developing mid-range game.
And now you're telling me that he's getting bigger, stronger and more skilled?
Say o to a legitimate MVP candidate

i sense a knee injury
^ didn't know he ever played in Portland, tbh
I like Davis, but he's getting hyped up to such a level where there's going to be backlash if he doesn't immediately meet people's ridiculous expectations.... same happened to Blake after his rookie season....
Yeah, #1 asset in the NBA over James and Servant? I love Davis' game and always thought he'd be way better as a pro than in college, but he's not there yet to be compared with Durbeta and LeBron.
Can't be a freak of nature when you have a small penis IMO..
Good point tbh. It's crazy because this kid is already putting up 20 (51% from the field), 10 and nearly 3 blocks per game.
Favorite non Spur. This kid is gonna be incredible.
Looking forward to seeing Davis in a Laker jersey one day. He will be the greatest Laker bigman since Shaq.
The Spurs should go after this guy after they sign Lebron (this week I assume)
Not really..I don't think you can be a super-human type man/athlete at 7-feet tall if you have a small penis, tbh..
what about austin rivers
Steroids?
Is there any proof of his penis being small? (No )
Edit: No idea why it got posted twice...
Anyway, if penis size is any indication of NBA success Greg Oden would absolutely dominate the league.
(Again... no )

There's a video of him getting spanked by a college teammate, while naked, exposing his little ting..
He's a 7-footer that has tiny hands, so it was already suspected, and the video confirmed it..
No surprise to see you bring up penis sizes.
Harlem got - Phallus Connoisseur
The hype means nothing if he can't make it worthwhile
Harlem: 8
Toht: 4 inches
Grim business.
