LeBron James Addresses Anthony Davis’ Defense On Jimmy Butler: “That’s Why He’s The Defensive Player Of The Year”

 

Anthony Davis may not have won the ‘Defensive Player of the Year’ award this year, but a ton of fans and basketball personalities still continue to reiterate that Davis may be the real ‘Defensive Player of the Year’ winner due to his stellar defensive play in this year’s playoffs.

The Los Angeles Lakers have established their identity as one of the best defensive teams in the NBA. Although they have a handful of players who can offer length and versatility, Davis is by far the biggest reason why the Lakers have been flourishing on the other side of the ball.

On Tuesday’s Game 4 against the Miami Heat, Davis once again showcased his defensive ability, making stops and tallying four blocks – one being a game-sealing block on Jimmy Butler. After the game, Lakers superstar LeBron James showered a well-deserved praise to his defensive-minded teammate.

 

“That’s why he’s the defensive player of the year.”
