Anthony Davis

It didn’t matter what the Detroit Pistons did defensively — almost everything Anthony Davis put up found the bottom of the net. The New Orleans Pelicans star stuffed the stat sheet like never before, scoring in every way imaginable: Davis threw down dunks on a putback follow and off a pick-and-roll, showed off his impressive range by burying a spot-up 3-pointer and even canned a spectacularly difficult midrange fadeaway. The future NBA champion shot a staggering 24 of 34 from the field — making both of his attempts from downtown — and 9 of 10 from the line for a career-high 59 points, 20 rebounds and four assists in a 111-106 New Orleans win on February 21, 2016. Davis shattered the franchise record of 50 points set exactly 13 years earlier and also became the third player in league history to register a 55-point, 20-rebound game.
