Kevin Garnett is starting to see a change in Lakers star.

Kevin Garnett is liking what he has been seeing from Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis. Davis is starting to find his groove just as the season is winding down. However, the Lakers have post-season aspirations on their mind. Having a healthy and hungry Davis will put the league on notice. But Garnett is already taking notice. Garnett stated that he loves what he is seeing from the big man. Also, Garnett claimed that if Davis played this well all season, he would be in the MVP discussion.

The Lakers are 4-1 in their last five. With their last game being a loss to the Clippers. However, the Lakers are still turning heads. Many among the media believe the Lakers are a legit threat to the NBA title. Former Detroit Pistons star Isiah Thomas is just one of the people believing in the Lakers. Certainly, it is hard to count out the Lakers. Because the team is home to one of the greatest of all time in LeBron James. However, LeBron isn't the x-factor for this team.

Kevin Garnett Loving What He Sees From Anthony Davis

Garnett is just one of the many people who know what Davis can do. The former number-one overall pick can be a dominant force. Undoubtedly, Davis played a huge role in the Lakers winning the 2020 NBA Championship. However, since the end of that season, Davis has battled injury after injury. The talent is there in Los Angeles. But the timing could be too little too late for the surging team. However, if any team is going to make an improbable run. The Lakers would be a good bet.

Kevin Garnett knows good talent when he sees it. The former Timberwolves star isn't afraid, to tell the truth like it is. The Lakers are more talented than a few teams already sitting comfortably in the playoffs. However, the Lakers are continuing to fight for their playoff lives. The Lakers will finish up their regular season this weekend with games against the Jazz and the Suns. A chance at the sixth seed is still up for grabs. Can the Lakers avoid the play-in tournament?
