LOOK: Anthony Davis wears new Lakers jersey for the first time

by:Jack Pilgrim07/13/19
This afternoon, former Kentucky superstar Anthony Davis officially became a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. The franchise held their introductory press conference today, where Davis received his brand new No. 3 jersey. The official Lakers Twitter account recorded the big moment: https://twitter.com/lakers/status/1150134725228367872?s=21 When talking to the media for the first time, Davis was asked about when he first heard the news that he was being traded from New Orleans to Los Angeles. According to the former Wildcat, he was actually in a hotel room by himself watching a movie when his agent, Rich Paul, called him to tell him the big news. After originally declining his call and playing a bit of phone tag, Davis actually saw the breaking news headline on Instagram. https://twitter.com/sportscenter/status/1150134226731380743?s=21 Now that he is officially a Los Angeles Laker, the former Wildcat says he is ready to take on the rest of the NBA. In his eyes, a duo of Davis and LeBron James can top anyone in the league. “I’ll put our roster up against anybody,” he said. https://twitter.com/sportscenter/status/1150141161383895041?s=21 Anthony Davis, LeBron James, DeMarcus Cousins, and Rajon Rondo. Quite fun. [mobile_ad]
