THEY SAY YOU should start as you mean to go on — and Anthony Davis kicked off the new NBA season with some monster numbers.

Davis had 26 points, 17 rebounds, nine blocks, three steals and two assists last night as the New Orleans Pelicans beat the Orlando Magic 101-84.

Now he’s got people talking about the possibility of a historic quadruple- double (ie double digit totals in four different stat categories in a single game).

Only four players have ever achieved those numbers and nobody has done it since the legendary David Robinson 20 years ago.
