Jason Sumerlin: 'Anthony Davis stronger than ever'

New Orleans Pelicans strength and conditioning coach Jason Sumerlin reveals that Anthony Davis has been working hard in the gym over the summer.

New Orleans Pelicans strength and conditioning coach Jason Sumerlin has revealed his belief that Anthony Davis is "stronger than he has ever been before".

Sumerlin revealed that the 22-year-old has changed his diet, and has been working hard in the gym to add muscle weight.

"He is going to be stronger, faster, quicker and more explosive this year," Sumerlin told Pelicans.com.

"He talks about it all the time. He feels it. His trunk stability is a huge thing. Whenever he has been down low with the big guys, he kind of collapses [at his midsection]. He is starting to understand how to use his body more efficiently now."

Davis averaged 24.4 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.9 blocks per game last season.
