Davis won’t be joining teammate LeBron James, an All-Star team captain for a sixth consecutive year, in Salt Lake City later this month for All-Star Weekend, his candidacy clearly damaged by a 20-g…
INDIANAPOLIS — As Anthony Davis was scoring the first of his 31 points in a 112-111 victory over the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O’Neal were opening envelopes back at the TNT studio.
There is a temptation to paint the Pacers’ second-to-last offensive possession as some sort of fiery retribution for Davis, blocking a shot in isolation against Tyrese Haliburton, Indiana’s 22-year-old first-time All-Star. The only problem with the scene is the intent: Davis didn’t even know he missed the cut until Lakers sideline reporter Mike Trudell told him during the postgame interview.
“I don’t know,” he said shaking his head. “If it happens, obviously, that’s great. It’s always an honor. But like I said, my wife is ecstatic. She already texted me, ‘So, where we going?’ It’s cool.” Sacramento’s Domantas Sabonis, Utah’s Lauri Markkanen and Memphis’ Jaren Jackson Jr. were the notable big men elected by the NBA’s coaches over Davis. Of that group, Davis has the highest scoring average , the second-highest rebounding average and the second-highest blocked shots average .
