Anthony's Courtside Antics Caused Outrage Among Fans

Nala Davis's father has been no secret to fans hating. Man has received criticism from fans and even professionals like Lebron James. However, this case was a bit strange.

However, despite all the money, Anthony reminds himself to remain humble. He credits his father for injecting him with those values. He will most likely give her daughter Nala the same values he got from his father. 

Davis'father constantly stops him from recklessly spending his hard-earned money. He said:

I’m a big car guy. I love cars. My mom really don’t care. Get her excited, ‘Oh, have fun, spend your money, it’s your life.' Fathers, on the other hand … I’m like, ‘I wanna get that new car, I’m about to get this Lamborghini truck.’ And he’s like, ‘Aaah, no. You have seven cars already.

The Lakers player has another tattoo done to show his love for Nala. This one is on his right forearm and is not as complicated as the previous one. It is just the spelling of his daughter's name. 

The letters are spelled vertically, covering his sleeve with the first letter 'N' wearing a crown. Stars and doves surround the letters.

It's no secret to Anthony how the fans have felt about him for a long time. Not just The Brow but even his father, Anthony Davis Sr., is well aware of it. 

Davis has even said that if his son considers leaving, he should never join the Basketball giants Boston Celtics. It is because of how the Celtics got rid of their player Isiah Thomas while he was still recovering from his hip injury.

His father said this back in 2019 while speaking to ESPN. He said:

I would never want my son to play for Boston after what they done to Isaiah Thomas. No loyalty. Guy gives his heart and soul and they traded him. This is just my opinion, not Anthony's. I've just seen things over the years with Boston, and there's no loyalty.
