Anthony Davis has arrived.
Though he might be only the second-most menacing Pelican in New Orleans (after this guy), Davis has put together a superstar-level first week of this NBA season. His line through three games would bring a tear to the eye of any big-man aficionado: 23.7 points per game, 12.3 rebounds per game (six offensive) and four blocks per game. He has been nothing short of a scoring, boarding, shot-blocking machine.
This is the kind of production the Pelicans probably dreamed of when they drafted Davis first overall in the 2012 NBA draft. Instead, Davis suffered an injury early and flew under the radar for most of his rookie season.
