Anthony Davis would have led the Milwaukee Bucks to the NBA Finals were he in Giannis Antetokounmpo‘s place last season, according to super-agent Rich Paul.
Paul insists it’s no knock on The Greek Freak: AD is simply a superior player.
Davis, who forced his way to L.A. this summer, believes the Lakers can win it all in 2019-20.
Per ESPN:
“He’s just as talented as anyone who’s ever played this game,” Paul says. “Six-11, makes 3s, blocks shots. I think he’s one of the better passing big men in our game. In my opinion, this is what makes him different from Giannis [Antetokounmpo].
“Like, if you put Anthony Davis on that Bucks team last year, they’d be playing in the Finals. He knows how to make guys better. That’s not a knock to Giannis, but that’s just what [I think].”
[Davis] found his new team. He hopes to find the Larry O’Brien trophy in his hands in June.
“I really feel like we can win it.”
