The Lakers superstar Anthony Davis just turned 30 this week but as opposed to LeBron James, he just gave an average performance

The Los Angeles Lakers lost against the NY Knicks, and Anthony Davis stated that he was responsible for it as he thinks he played terribly while the rest of the players stepped up.

But now that AD has turned 30, coach Darvin Ham thinks the superstar's best years are still ahead of him. Ham believes that his star will remain as elite as ever.

"Turning 30, I think, is a lot different for a big guy than it is for a small guy," Ham said. "And you can see how the game is just so easy for him. The biggest thing for him is just being able to be available, play pain-free. We've seen time and time again, early on in the season and here recently, the type of level he can go to when he is locked in and he's been locked in all year… Actually being around Bron has been helping him, just seeing how to prepare physical, how to lock in and be efficient whenever he's in practice, on the game floor or whatever have you, the physical activity of it all." Said Ham.

Darvin also added: "It gets harder and harder as you get older, so to have a guy like Bron next to him and learning from him and seeing the type of methods that he implements for him, just his whole package in terms of being prepared, again, not only to play, but the level they're playing at. I see a really bright future for AD. These are the golden years in his early 30s for a big and I think you'll see some fantastic basketball out of him. You're already seeing that and I just think he's gonna be able to sustain it more with the way he's gonna be able to take care of his body from this point forward."

Dennis Schroder thinks the loss vs. the Knicks is because all the team and not AD

The Lakers PG doesn't think that the one to be blamed for the loss is Anthony Davis but the whole team. Schroder considers that when they win, they win as a team, and the same for losing.
