Anthony Davis is one of the best big men in the league when he is healthy and capable of dominating on both ends of the floor. In most years, he would have been selected for the All-Star game, but this year, Anthony Davis had to sit out due to injuries and limited availability.
This year, a lot of people have complained about the All-Star game, with many lamenting the lack of competitiveness it had. That also ended up resulting in the game itself having low ratings. When speaking to the media recently, Anthony Davis joked that the low ratings might have been because he wasn’t playing.
Anthony Davis on the All-Star Game's low ratings
"Oh wow," he said with a grin. "Maybe because I wasn't in it?"

Anthony Davis on the All-Star Game’s low ratings
“Oh wow,” he said with a grin. “Maybe because I wasn’t in it?”
Though this was clearly a joke, Anthony Davis is a big-market superstar who plays for the Los Angeles Lakers, which could have potentially drawn more eyes to the game itself. However, he will have to wait until next year to participate, and perhaps we’ll see Anthony Davis show everyone why he should have been an All-Star in the coming weeks.
Anthony Davis Still Believes The Los Angeles Lakers Can Finish Top 10 In The West
The Los Angeles Lakers completely re-vamped their squad at the trade deadline, and now they look a lot younger, with a lot more offense and shooting. Recently, Anthony Davis suggested that the team could still finish in a play-in tournament spot by the end of the season.
Anthony Davis on if he thinks Lakers can get into top 10: “I think these guys we have now, we can do it. We just gotta speed up the process. It’d definitely be challenging a little bit. They’re new, and they’re trying learn the system on both ends of the floor.”
There is no doubt that the Lakers have the talent to get far in the Western Conference this year. Adding D’Angelo Russell and Malik Beasley was key for their offense, while Mo Bamba and Jarred Vanderbilt will help them improve defensively. It will be interesting to see how they do over the course of the rest of the season with their influx of talent and quality rotation players.
We are finally seeing a Los Angeles Lakers roster with many quality players around LeBron James and Anthony Davis, and it is clear that they have the ability to get far if they make the playoffs. Hopefully, we see them make the postseason, whether they make it outright through the 6th seed or get in through the play-in tournament. The key is getting there, and the rest will sort itself out.
