"Locked in AD is better than Giannis": LA Lakers fans star-struck by Anthony Davis who puts up a monster performance against the Pelicans

Anthony Davis put up another dominating performance on Tuesday night when the LA Lakers beat the New Orleans Pelicans 123-108. Davis came up with his second consecutive double-double outing by adding 35 points and 17 rebounds. AD was also laser-focused with his shooting on Tuesday, as he shot an efficient 61.1% from the field and barely missed his free throws with 92.3% shooting.

LA fans are rejoicing at the moment as the Lakers are now back in the Play-In Tournament picture, ranking 10th in the West. Fans are also commending Anthony Davis for his impeccable showing against the Pelicans in what was a much-needed win for the purple and gold.

Some were even overzealous with Davis' performance, where they even said that AD is better than Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Fortunately, a healthy AD has been doing wonders for the Lakers, as he has dominated almost every game without LBJ on the court. With Davis' most recent double-double outing, LA fans are now roaring on social media as they win again.
