The Los Angeles Lakers officially introduced big man Anthony Davis as a member of the organization.
“There is no more complete basketball player in the game. There is nothing he can’t do. He can shoot. He can make plays. He can defend 1-5. He can protect the rim. He can handle the ball. His dedication to his craft is unparalleled,” Lakers GM Rob Pelinka said on Davis at a press conference on Saturday.
It's real.
