Change the statement describing Anthony Davis's 59-point game to show that it is his career high, because if you search Anthony Davis career high on google, the wikipedia page shows that his career high is 36. The statement should say that on February 21st, 2016, in a game vs the Detroit Pistons, Anthony Davis scored a franchise record 59 points, which is also his career high.

Due to him being assigned to the G league, for some reason people don’t like to see it? Some people are changing it to where it says he’s not a G- league player… but he is. Hwaikdoviwbwwko (talk) 20:37, 18 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
