Danny Green joined the Lakers in the 2019-20 season and has become a pivotal part of the squad. His performance has not been extraordinary, but he still has been good at the defense side. He also holds a good 3-point shooting capability. LeBron James [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lebron-james/] has had an enormous impact on him and the 6’6” agrees with this in every interview. LeBron was playing in such great rhythm in March. Will he be able to bring that form back in the Bubble? He has successfully kept himself away from injuries and has trained hard. But will that be enough? Let’s hear it from his teammate. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/lebron-james-danny-green-scaled.jpg](AP Photo/Jeff Chiu) DANNY GREEN IS ALL PRAISE FOR LEBRON JAMES Answering the question about Bron’s lost momentum, he said, “Just going up his character, his work ethic, and his habits. My confidence is very high in him coz I know he’s non-stop been working since the pandemic has happened. You can see him fine.” https://youtu.be/p6cgLLHR3IU?t=372 These words can prove scary for competitors. The Lakers had a mini heart-attack in the NBA scrimmage game against Orlando Magic. Michael Carter-Williams accidentally poked Anthony Davis [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/anthony-davis/] in the eye and it raised concerns about his fitness. On a positive note, AD joined the practice wearing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar styled glasses. LeBron poked fun of it by calling him “Anthony Jabbar-Davis.” DANNY AND BRON CHASING RECORDS About the whole team as a unit, Danny said confidently, “We have a lot of depth, we can play big, we can play small. We can play inside out”. He believes that pace will matter and it will give them an edge in the games ahead in the Orlando Bubble [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/orlando-bubble/]. The youngster will look forward to making his presence felt and prove that he can be a match-winner too. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/lbj-lakers-1.jpg] LeBron James is keen on winning his fourth NBA title while the Deadshot will want to win his third. The whole Lakers management is positive about the team’s mindset, which is focused on winning the title. Danny had earlier praised the versatility and the leadership of LeBron, who always wants to lift his team.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Anthony Davis in 2024: Early Life, College Career, NBA Draft, Notable Records and Accolades</h2>
Anthony Davis currently plays for the Los Angeles Lakers in the National Basketball Association (NBA). He started his career in the league with the New Orleans Pelicans, or New Orleans Hornets, as it was known then. The player won the NBA title with the Lakers in 2020, after he and LeBron James led them to a stunning victory. The power forward remains a premium shot-blocker and can score at will. Often derailed by injuries, when he is fit and healthy, Anthony Davis has no limits.

He made his first playoff appearance in 2015. In the next season, he signed a five-year, $145 million contract extension with the Pelicans. However, a few months into the season, Davis' season ended because of shoulder and knee injuries. Davis has several tattoos, a few visible while playing ball. Notably, he has a tattoo of Mamba as a tribute to Kobe Bryant.

<h2>Anthony Davis' Early Life and High School</h2>
Born in Chicago on March 11, 1993, Davis was raised in the Englewood neighborhood. He started his playing days in high school with Perspectives Charter School. However, not all schools have world-class facilities and he later practiced at a local church. Although he didn't become the next kid on the block, he worked hard and received late recognition and a rapid growth spurt. He transitioned from a 'little guy' to 6'10" when he entered his senior year. Obviously, Anthony Davis became the #1 player in the 2011 class.

At one time, with the Perspectives Charter school, he averaged 32 points, 22 rebounds, and 7 blocks. His quality performances led him to numerous accolades, including the 2011 McDonald's All-American Game and the 10th annual Jordan Brand Classic. He was a first-team selection to the ESPN Rise boys' high school basketball All-American team. For a young boy to gain that much recognition speaks volumes of the power forward's talent.
<h2>College Career at Kentucky</h2>
After all those high school accolades, Davis verbally agreed to join Kentucky despite offers from Ohio, DePaul, and Syracuse and became the number 1 player in the national class of 2011. Coached by John Calipari, and playing one season under him, Anthony David dominated the courts from start to finish. He became the National Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, and the Most Outstanding Player. To think of his rapid growth in college was a scary proposition for most teams.

The player set the NCAA freshman records for blocks and won multiple national awards. There was no doubt that Anthony Davis would be the top player in the 2012 NBA draft. The player averaged 15.2 points, 11.2 rebounds, and 4.6 blocks per game, and led the team to its eighth NCAA championship. The block machine finally made it to the NBA after being miles apart in high school.

<h2>Anthony Davis' NBA Draft and New Orleans Career</h2>
Significantly, Anthony Davis declared himself for the 2012 NBA draft following his Kentucky Wildcats days. The New Orleans Hornets (later Pelicans) drafted Davis in 2012 and selected him as the first pick. At the 2012 NBA Draft Combine, Davis measured at 6 feet 9.25 inches (2.06 m), 221.8 pounds (100.6 kg), and had the second-longest wingspan—7 feet 5.5 inches (2.27 m)—of any player participating. It helped him to block shots easily throughout his career. Without much adaptation time, he established himself as one of the premier defenders in the league.

The player signed his first 3-year, $16 million guaranteed contract with the Hornets and made his debut against the San Antonio Spurs. He made his mark in the game, scoring 21 points but lost the matchup. However, injuries became a cause of concern for the player. Despite all the high-scoring games and blocked shots, he finished second to Damian Lillard in the Rookie of the Year award. Adding around 10 pounds in the post-season, Davis developed his post-game offense and became great in transitions. In a game against Orlando Magic, Davis scored 25 points and 15 rebounds, the youngest player in the franchise's history to do so.

He later earned an All-Star selection and made NBA teams with ease. The player led the league in blocks in 2014 (2.82 per game), becoming the youngest player to do so. Later, Victor Wembanyama broke the record in 2024. The greatest achievement in his New Orleans career became the 59-point game against the Detroit Pistons. He joined Shaquille O'Neal and Chris Webber, becoming the only players to have a 50-point game with 20 rebounds.

Earned All-NBA and All-Defensive honors, making the playoffs and establishing himself as one of the league’s top power forwards as the Lakers came calling. 
<h2>Los Angeles Lakers and Championships</h2>
The player later requested a trade and guess where he went. The Los Angeles Lakers instantly became a championship contender as Anthony Davis joined LeBron James in 2019. He settled nicely and points came in thick and fast. 40-point games became customary as the player broke records at every instant. In a game against the Pistons, Davis set an all-time record for block percentage of 25.6%. Later in 2020, he declined the Lakers' contract offer for free agency in a bid to get a max contract of over $200 million.

Anthony Davis later led the team to the NBA championship in 2020. He and the Lakers earned their 17th NBA title, tying the Celtics' record of 17 title wins although the basketball team from Boston won their 18th. In the process, he became the first player to win an NCAA title, NBA title, Olympic gold, and FIBA World Cup. Quite an achievement, isn't it? He still plays for the Lakers, but injuries plagued him. One step forward and two steps back became a norm for the player who remains injured most of the time.

Yet, he remains crucial for the Lakers in terms of leading the team for rebounds, blocks, and scoring. Anthony Davis becomes crucial to the side heading to the 2024-25 season and hopes to win his second NBA title.

<h2>National Team and International Success</h2>
In terms of donning the Star and Stripes jersey, Anthony Davis achieved success like no other player. He won an Olympic gold in 2012 London with the customary Dream Team. They remained undefeated during the Olympic Games and won the gold medal by dominating Spain. It didn't stop there. The player then earned a selection to the US team for the 2014 FIBA World Cup. He averaged 12.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2.1 blocks per game in 9 games played while shooting 54.9% from the field.

Moreover, the player then returned to the 2024 U.S. Olympic team and helped them win a gold medal. He averaged 8.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists and even got 1.2 steals. Of course, there were 1.5 blocks per game while shooting 62.5% from the field. He remains one of the most decorated players in the U.S. national team's history.
<h2>Personal Life and Esports Career</h2>
Notably, Anthony Davis' parents played a crucial role in his upbringing. His father Anthony Davis Sr. and mother, Erainer, taught him well at a young age. He has a twin sister, Antoinette, and an elder sister, Lesha. Moreover, Lesha followed her brother and played basketball at Daley College. Now coming to the love of his life, Anthony Davis married Marlen Polanco on September 18, 2021. The couple has three children: Nala and two boys whose names they have chosen not to disclose.

In another interesting part of his career, On June 19, 2022, Davis signed with FaZe Clan, joining Faze Clan's Nuke Squad for Call of Duty.

<h2>Notable Records and Accolades</h2>
In terms of records and accolades, Anthony Davis has several records to his name. He holds records in the NCAA, the NBA and franchise stats for blocks, rebounds, and efficiency. In the NCAA, the player had the most blocks in a season by a freshman with 186 blocks. It became the fourth all-time record in the NCAA for blocks in a single season. Meanwhile, his 29 blocks in the 2011-2012 NCAA tournament are tied for second all-time. In terms of scoring, Anthony Davis' .623 FG% remains a record for a freshman. He also got 415 rebounds in 2011-2012, tied for fourth all-time in the NCAA rebounds by a freshman.

In terms of NBA records, he scored a record-breaking 52 points in the 2017 All-Star game, which shocked the fans. But Jayson Tatum broke that record in the last All-Star game by scoring 55. The records don't end there. He became the first player to record 25+ points, 25+ rebounds, 5+ assists, and 5+ steals in a game. Known for his shot-blocking, Davis led the NBA in blocks, three times.

In addition, the player scored 30+ points and 15+ rebounds in four consecutive games, which only two Lakers players achieved. Recently, he won the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament with the Lakers, setting scoring and rebounding records. Here's a list of notable accolades by Anthony Davis.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Danny Green: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Danny Green entered the NBA in 2009 as the 46th overall pick in the draft. He plays the small forward position and has won three NBA championships in his career. 

Green was born in 1987 in New York. He initially went to North Babylon High School but later transferred to St.Mary’s. Danny Green earned a strong name for himself as a teenager and was considered to be a four-star recruit upon graduating. 

He averaged 20.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in his senior year and was a McDonald’s All-American in 2005. 

After gaining a reputation, Green then joined the University of North Carolina where he began as the sixth man during his freshman year. He pledged his services to UNC for all four years and only then declared for the NBA draft.

[caption id="attachment_594308" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-594308" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210326132557/2021-03-26T034909Z_1706035999_MT1USATODAY15795567_RTRMADP_3_NBA-PHILADELPHIA-76ERS-AT-LOS-ANGELES-LAKERS.jpg" alt="Dennis Schroder" width="1920" height="1330" /> Mar 25, 2021; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder (17) gets past Philadelphia 76ers forward Danny Green (14) for a basket in the first half of the game at Staples Center.

Green evolved into a terrific long-range shooter at UNC and gradually rose through the ranks with his talent. He was a member of the starting five when they were crowned NCAA champions. 

Furthermore, Green is the only North Carolina Tar Heel to have 1,000 points (1,368), 500 rebounds (590), 200 assists (256), 100 blocks (155), and 100 steals (160).
<h2 style="text-align: center">Danny Green NBA career </h2>
After being picked by the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/brooklyn-nets/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Cleveland Cavaliers</a> in the 2009 draft, the team waived Green after just 20 games. He then joined the San Antonio Spurs in 2010, transferred to the D-League twice, and then re-signed with them again in 2011. 

He evolved as an important perimeter defender and honed his shooting skills to become the Spurs’ go-to three-point shooter. During the 2013 NBA Finals, Green broke Ray Allen’s record for <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/leaders/fg3_series_finals.html">most three-pointers</a> made in an NBA finals series with 27 successful 3-pt shots. This record was then bettered by <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/stephen-curry/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Steph Curry</a> in the 2016 Finals. 

Green was then traded to the Toronto Raptors along with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kawhi-leonard/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Kawhi Leonard</a> after spending seven seasons with the Spurs. He found immense success in his first year in Toronto and his experience helped the franchise scale massive heights. 

His three-point shooting proved to be of great value to the team as they made a dominant run to the 2019 Finals where they defeated the Golden State Warriors in six games. After earning his second ring, Green once again made the move and joined a different team, but this time, he spent only one year with the Raptors.

Danny Green signed with the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/los-angeles-lakers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Los Angeles Lakers</a> in 2019 and was offered a two-year contract. After a disappointing rookie Laker season, he helped the team finish atop the Western Conference the following year.

Furthermore, the Lakers won the 2020 championship, which made Green and teammate LeBron James the third and fourth players to win three championships with three different teams after John Salley and Robert Horry. 

Then in 2020 off-season, the Lakers traded Danny Green alongwith a first-round draft pick to gain Dennis Schroder. Later, the OKC sent Danny to the Sixers in an exchange of multiple players.

Danny Green

Danny Green: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements Danny Green entered the NBA in 2009 as the 46th overall pick in the draft. He plays the small forward position and has won three NBA championships in his career.  Green was born in 1987 in New York. He initially went to North Babylon High School but later transferred to St.Mary’s. Danny Green earned a strong name for himself as a teenager and was considered to be a four-star recruit upon graduating.  He averaged 20.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in his senior year and was a McDonald’s All-American in 2005.  After gaining a reputation, Green then joined the University of North Carolina where he began as the sixth man during his freshman year. He pledged his services to UNC for all four years and only then declared for the NBA draft.

Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports Green evolved into a terrific long-range shooter at UNC and gradually rose through the ranks with his talent. He was a member of the starting five when they were crowned NCAA champions.  Furthermore, Green is the only North Carolina Tar Heel to have 1,000 points (1,368), 500 rebounds (590), 200 assists (256), 100 blocks (155), and 100 steals (160). Danny Green NBA career  After being picked by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2009 draft, the team waived Green after just 20 games. He then joined the San Antonio Spurs in 2010, transferred to the D-League twice, and then re-signed with them again in 2011.  He evolved as an important perimeter defender and honed his shooting skills to become the Spurs’ go-to three-point shooter. During the 2013 NBA Finals, Green broke Ray Allen’s record for most three-pointers made in an NBA finals series with 27 successful 3-pt shots. This record was then bettered by Steph Curry in the 2016 Finals.  Green was then traded to the Toronto Raptors along with Kawhi Leonard after spending seven seasons with the Spurs. He found immense success in his first year in Toronto and his experience helped the franchise scale massive heights.  His three-point shooting proved to be of great value to the team as they made a dominant run to the 2019 Finals where they defeated the Golden State Warriors in six games. After earning his second ring, Green once again made the move and joined a different team, but this time, he spent only one year with the Raptors. Danny Green signed with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2019 and was offered a two-year contract. After a disappointing rookie Laker season, he helped the team finish atop the Western Conference the following year. Mandatory Credit: Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports Furthermore, the Lakers won the 2020 championship, which made Green and teammate LeBron James the third and fourth players to win three championships with three different teams after John Salley and Robert Horry.  Then in 2020 off-season, the Lakers traded Danny Green alongwith a first-round draft pick to gain Dennis Schroder. Later, the OKC sent Danny to the Sixers in an exchange of multiple players.

He signed a two-year $30 million contract with the franchise.  Currently, he is on a 2-year $20 million contract with the Sixers with equal division of guaranteed salary for both years. He was signed using early bird/free agent contract and will hit an unrestricted free agency in 2023. Danny Green Net Worth and Endorsements  Danny Green has been around the NBA for more than a decade. He’s an experienced contender who has earned plenty of riches through his contracts. Green has earned several million through various deals, and Celebrity Net Worth estimates his value to be $12 million.  Furthermore, Danny Green has a multi-year sneaker deal running with PUMA. He also endorses “Manscpaed,” a personal grooming product.   Danny Green NBA Career Stats  Jan 27, 2021; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (3) reaches to keep the ball in bounds against Philadelphia 76ers forward Danny Green (14) during the second quarter at Wells Fargo Center.

LeBron James

Who is LeBron James? LeBron James is widely considered to be one of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball. Born in Akron, James spent the majority of his professional career with the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Los Angeles Lakers, winning multiple NBA championships and earning numerous accolades along the way. Dec 7, 2023; Las Vegas, Nevada, USA; Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (23) reacts during the second quarter against the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA In Season Tournament Semifinal at T-Mobile Arena. Mandatory Credit: Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sports &nbsp; Known for his exceptional all-around game, James is a four-time MVP and has been selected to the All-Star team a record 18 times. LeBron James&#8217; early life LeBron James was born on December 30, 1984, in Akron, Ohio. James started playing basketball at a young age, showing great potential. He soon became one of the best high school basketball players in the country. James graduated from St. Vincent&#8217;s St. Mary High School and declared for the NBA draft in 2003. James led St. Vincent&#8217;s St. Mary to three state championships in four years. With Keith Dambrot and Dru Joyce II coaching the side for two years each, the Fighting Irish had a record of 101 victories and 6 losses during James&#8217; time. LeBron James&#8217; wife and children LeBron James was raised by his mother Gloria James, who struggled to make ends meet as a single mother. Not much is known about James&#8217; biological father Anthony McClelland, who was largely absent from LeBron&#8217;s life during his childhood. He is also reported to have criminal records to his name. James has been in a relationship with his high school sweetheart Savannah since his teenage years. The couple tied the knot on September 14, 2013. Savannah James has indulged in several business ventures over the years and is also a noted philanthropist. She has also established a mentorship program for young women. LeBron and Savannah have three children together: Bronny, Bryce, and Zhuri James. Both Bronny and Bryce are following in their father&#8217;s footsteps to become basketball stars. In December 2023, Bronny made his long-awaited collegiate debut with the USC Trojans, less than five months after suffering cardiac arrest in July. LeBron James&#8217; net worth 2024 LeBron James has an estimated net worth of $1 billion, according to recent reports. James is the first active NBA star to achieve this feat. The four-time NBA champion signed a two-year $97.1 million contract extension with theÂ Los Angeles Lakers last year. As per reports, James has earned around $387 million in salaries in his 20-year NBA career so far. Furthermore, he has also made a fortune with his endorsement deals and investments, which have helped him build his massive business empire. LeBron James&#8217; NBA career timeline TheÂ Cleveland Cavaliers selected hometown boy LeBron James as the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft. James was a superstar straight out of high school and took the league by storm. He played for the Cavaliers from 2003 to 2010 in his first stint and won MVP awards in 2009 and 2010. Even though the Akron Hammer was almost unstoppable on the court and won many individual accolades, team success was hard to come by.

He received major backlash from Cavs fans after this move. However, he continued his dominance, alongside superstars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh for the Heat, and clinched his first NBA title in 2012, followed by another in 2013. He also won the NBA MVP award and the Finals MVP award in 2012 and 2013. The estranged son then returned to the Cavaliers in 2014 and took the team to four straight NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors. He helped the Cavs win their first-ever NBA title in 2016. James once again left the Cavs, this time to join the Los Angeles Lakers, in 2018 and led them to the 2020 NBA title.Â  Following the retirements of Udonis Haslem and Andre Iguodala, LeBron James is currently the oldest player in the league.

He has led three different franchises &#8211; the Miami Heat, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Los Angeles Lakers &#8211; to NBA titles. James&#8217; first title came in 2012 with the Heat, when he won his first Finals MVP award, followed by a second consecutive title in 2013.

LeBron James&#8217; shoe deals LeBron James signed a huge deal with Nike even before he entered the NBA. As James&#8217; superstardom rose, he became one of the most important faces of the brand, with his line of signature shoes, which is in its 20th version now. The four-time NBA MVP signed a lifetime deal with Nike in 2015 for an undisclosed fee. LeBron James&#8217; house LeBron James has reiterated multiple times that he does not spend his hard-earned money without reason. Former teammate Dwyane Wade once revealed that James is one of the cheapest players in the league despite being one of the richest. However, James knows how to spend his fortune in style. And when it comes to where he lives, the King does not compromise. According to reports, LeBron owns multiple properties in California, Ohio, and Miami, that are worth a combined estimated value of $100 million. LeBron James&#8217; car collection LeBron James is known for having an extensive collection of cars, estimated to be worth over $2 million. Some of the standouts include a Chevy Camaro SS, a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder, and the Dodge Challenger SRT 392. He also owns a Lamborghini Aventador Roadster, a 720-horsepower V12 supercar. Another notable element of his collection is a Mercedes luxury sedan, the Maybach S650, worth around $200,000. Notably, after teaming up with Shaquille O&#8217;Neal in Cleveland, Shaq gifted LeBron a Rolls Royce Phantom for his 25th birthday. The luxury car goes from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds and is valued at around $505,000. LeBron James&#8217; controversial moments LeBron James has not had any major controversies so far. However, there have been a few questionable moments in his career. James was the centerpiece of controversy during his high school career for accepting gifts. Then his infamous move to the Miami Heat in 2010, announced on national television, stirred up a lot of controversy. James, who is very vocal about his political beliefs, was criticized for his association with Nike because of the brand&#8217;s political stance. Also, his comments on America after Brittney Griner&#8217;s detainment in Russia sparked some controversy. Will LeBron James retire? LeBron James, 39, is currently playing his 21st NBA season in the NBA. The future Hall of Famer is still playing at the highest level, but he is definitely at the tail end of his career. However, the Lakers icon will not retire after the 2023-24 season as he has multiple times opened up about his desire to play alongside his son Bronny James in the league. Bronny will be eligible to declare for the NBA draft next year. So there is a high chance that James may continue playing in the league until his son enters the NBA.
