Anthony Davis Blocks 2 Different Portland Trail Blazers in 2 Seconds

Stuffing a LaMarcus Aldridge fadeaway is not an act within the realm of physical possibility. Not our realm, at least.

For Anthony Davis, however, itโ€™s an opening course of sorts.

The New Orleans Pelicans center left his fingerprints all over Monday nightโ€™s game against the Portland Trail Blazers, dropping 31 points and blocking three shots in the 102-93 loss.

Two of Davisโ€™ blocks occurred during a dizzyingly absurd sequence in the second quarter.ย SB Nationโ€™s Mike Prada uploaded a Vine of the play. The 21-year-old packed an Aldridge jumper, deflecting the ball to Wesley Matthews, whom he also packed.

Davis then added a dash of paprika to the play by beating everyone down the courtโ€”because heโ€™s a fleet-footed squid-stork with zero regard for human life.

Throw 11 rebounds, three assists and three steals onto Davisโ€™ stat line, and youโ€™ll see why the sports blogosphere is losing its ever-loving grits over this young man and his development.

Hereโ€™s a sampling of reaction to Davisโ€™ performance against Portland:

We are not worthy. At all.
