Months ago, the Los Angeles Lakers faced hefty fines for trying to acquire big-man Anthony Davis from the New Orleans Pelicans. This offseason, the Lakers' prophecy was finally fulfilled, as they secured Davis to pair with LeBron James. While Davis is known for his rebounding and scoring from inside the paint, Davis is adding to his skill set. The latest addition? A side-step 3-point shot he showcased at Kobe Bryant's Mamba Sports Academy.

Now this will install fear in Los Angeles' opponents, especially in the Western Conference. What's more terrifying than AD in the paint? That answer is now Anthony Davis standing behind the 3-point line, especially if the Lakers can space the floor and LeBron can dish it out to him after driving the lane.

Once we see this in action on an NBA court, the Lakers could very well become the official favorites to win the Finals.
