Scouting Report
Strengths: Davis is a wonderful physical specimen, measuring a legitimate 6-10 in shoes with a 7-4 wingspan and has the quickness and dexterity of a guard. He’s a great shot-blocker and defender; as a freshman at Kentucky, he averaged 4.7 blocks per game, which was more than many Division I teams did. Davis, though, is skilled at rerouting passes towards his teammates in order to maintain possession of the ball. He doesn’t just swat shots into the third row.
With a field goal percentage of above 62 percent, he was also incredibly effective offensively.
Weaknesses: Davis’ offense at Kentucky was largely based on breaks and lobs; to be a true offensive threat at the next level, he’ll need to demonstrate more. He was advertised as a rather good three-point shooter coming out of high school, a holdover from his days as a jump-shooting guard before his growth spurt, but he didn’t demonstrate this skill much in college, making just 3 of 20 tries on the season (.150). He had no incentive to float out to the perimeter while he was outclassing NCAA big guys, of course.
He is classified at 220 points, which is extremely thin for a man who is close to seven feet tall, but his physique might support a little more bulk.
K-State Wildcats
As the most dominant player on the most dominant team in collegiate basketball, Davis led the Wildcats to a dazzling 39-1 record and the 2012 National Championship while also breaking the SEC rookie record for blocked shots. For a rookie at the age of 18, he concluded the season with averages of 14.2 points, 10.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 4.7 blocks.
Davis received recognition for his accomplishments in the 2012 NCAA Tournament, including Most Outstanding Player accolades, the Wooden Award, the Naismith Award, and unanimous selection to the first team All-America.
Dream Group?
After some of the recognizable NBA players on Team USA’s senior men’s team had injuries, most notably Dwight Howard, USA Basketball added Davis to the preliminary roster for the 2012 Olympic Games. Since Christian Laettner on the 1992 “Dream Team” he might be the first college athlete to compete in the Olympics.
Avoid the Brow
Since Frieda Kahlo or perhaps Bert from Sesame Street, Davis has had the most pronounced unibrow.
Once he receives that first sizable NBA paycheck, don’t anticipate him to start manscaping; the unibrow has practically become a Davis hallmark. His advertising firm has registered the terms “Raise the Brow” and “Fear the Brow” as trademarks.
Honors and Awards
A partial list of the awards and honors Davis has received during his basketball career:
- 2012 Wooden Award
- 2012 Naismith Award
- 2012 NCAA Tournament: Most Outstanding Player
He became the first basketball player in history to win an NCAA championship, NBA championship, Olympic Gold Medal, and FIBA World Cup after winning gold medals with the United States national team in the 2012 and 2014 World Cups. Anthony Davis’ predicted net worth in 2022 is $60 million. In 2019, Davis was traded to the Lakers.
