Power forward of the LeBron James all-time teammate team: Anthony Davis (2019-20)

Anthony Davis is not just the only current teammate to make the team; he is not just the starting power forward of this team; he is the greatest teammate that LeBron James has had in his entire career.

It is fitting that LeBron gets his best running mate late in his career as he gets up there in age and is going to be able to handle less and less of the workload. While LeBron is defying father time this season, Davis has still played like a franchise-revolving player and is legitimately in the MVP conversation.

Davis is averaging 26.7 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game. It goes so much deeper than the numbers, though, as Davis is legitimately a top-five guy in the league in terms of pure talent and creates a truly unstoppable force alongside LeBron.

The LeBron-Davis pick and roll is one of, if not the, most unstoppable things in the NBA this season. When we get to the playoffs, if the season picks back up, of course, we will start to see just how unstoppable this duo is and the mismatches in the playoffs are going to be evident.

Things slow down in the playoffs and while you could surprise the Lakers on any given night, the playoffs will be a completely different story as LeBron and Davis are simply better than any other superstar duo that the league has to offer.

The craziest part? Anthony Davis is only 26. He arguably is only in the first year of his prime, if he is even in his prime yet.
