Davis's primary finishing role supplies enough interior attempts and free throws to reach the scoring threshold.
34 PTS · 20 FGA · 14 FTA — Davis scored 34 points on 20 field-goal attempts and 14 free-throw attempts in his Washington opener. Those opportunities show an offense using him as a possession finisher rather than relying only on cleanup baskets.
27.5% USG · 34 MIN — Davis carried a 27.5% usage rate in his previous Dallas season and played 34 minutes in Washington's opener. A substantial playing-time window allows his interior scoring role to survive a decline from the opening game's exceptional foul-line volume.
Toronto can front the post and crowd Davis's catches, forcing him to pass before gathering a shot. Fewer foul calls or early personal fouls could remove both scoring opportunities and playing time.
Settlement Rule: CASHES ANTHONY DAVIS OVER 21.5 POINTS WITH AT LEAST 22 POINTS; NO PUSH.
