Anthony ended Saturday's 122-115 loss to the Nets with 17 points (6-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and two steals over 39 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
While the Lakers' season continues to spiral toward a full-on disaster, Anthony has had some encouraging individual moments that have reminded fantasy managers why he was one of the league's most dominant offensive players for much of the last two decades. Anthony has cooled off considerably since a red-hot start to the season, but he's still plenty capable of catching fire from three on any given night. The veteran now has at least 15 points in 12 of his 34 appearances this season.

Anthony posted 21 points (7-17 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals across 30 minutes during Sunday's 115-110 loss to Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony has always been a gifted scorer and Sunday's game was another proof of what he can do when he's involved enough on offense, but unfortunately for him and for fantasy managers who drafted him, he hasn't been consistent with his game-to-game performances. Anthony has scored in double digits just twice over his last seven contests, and in fact, this was the first time he cracked the 20-point mark since early November.

Anthony (non-COVID illness) will be available for Tuesday's contest against the Celtics, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony hasn't missed a game yet this season and it appears that trend will continue. In his first year with the Lakers, the veteran forward is averaging 14.3 points and 3.8 rebounds across 28.5 minutes per game.

Anthony finished Sunday's 110-106 win over the Pistons with zero points (0-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony dropped a dud, walking away with what can only be described as night to forget. After roaring out of the block to begin his Lakers career, it's been a slow and steady decline for the sharp-shooting veteran. His overall fantasy value is almost solely based on his ability to score the basketball. Obviously, on nights like this, the gaps in his game are plain for all to see.

Anthony posted 18 points (5-8 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and two blocks across 30 minutes during Sunday's 121-116 victory over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony didn't attempt anything that wasn't a three-pointer or a free throw, but he still provided decent scoring figures while scoring in double figures for the third time in a row. Anthony is shooting a strong 42 percent from deep while averaging 14.3 points per game across 11 appearances (three starts) this month.

Anthony is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony will make his first start of the season and is expected to remain in the starting five until Lebron James can return from an abdomen injury. The 37-year-old has gotten off to a very fast start to the year, averaging 16.1 points and 3.9 rebounds in 28.8 minutes per game.

Anthony accumulated three points (1-12 FG, 1-8 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 23 minutes during Friday's 107-83 loss to the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony Davis (22 points, eight rebounds, three steals, three blocks) was essentially the only Laker to play an above-average game on a night when they managed to score just 83 points against a Timberwolves team that was 3-7 entering Friday. Anthony had his worst shooting night of the season, going a disastrous 1-of-8 from beyond the arc and contributing to Los Angeles' 9-of-41 mark as a team. Even with this dud, Anthony is off to a much better start than anticipated, but his fantasy value will depend almost entirely on whether or not he's hot from three-point range on a given night.

Anthony totaled 29 points (9-13 FG, 7-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot across 37 minutes in a 126-123 overtime win versus Charlotte on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony was red-hot from the field in the victory, draining seven of 10 three-point tries and finishing 9-for-13 from the field overall. His clutch triple with two minutes remaining in overtime gave the Lakers a one-point lead, and Charlotte was unable to retake the lead for the remainder of the contest. Anthony has been a pleasant surprise in his first season in Los Angeles, ranking third in the NBA with 39 three-pointers and averaging a healthy 17.6 points per contest.

Anthony totaled 21 points (8-18 FG, 5-10 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists, two steals and a blocked shot across 32 minutes in a loss to Oklahoma City on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony again came up big off the bench for the Lakers, scoring more than all of the team's other reserves combined and knocking down five three-pointers for the second time in three games. Two of his treys came within the final minute of the contest, though Los Angeles wasn't able to avoid their second loss to OKC this season. Anthony has shined thus far in his first campaign with the Lakers, posting per-game averages of 17.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.6 three-pointers. He is tied for third in the league with 32 triples on the season.

Anthony totaled 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 119-117 victory over Houston.
EDGE Analysis
Anthony leveled off in the victory but still managed to score an efficient 15 points. His shooting has been incredible to begin the season and given the open looks he is getting, there is reason to believe it could be maintained, at least to some degree. Coming off a game in which he recorded six defensive stats, the zero he managed in this game is more like what we should expect moving forward.
