Signature Moments

The Bubble Championship — 2020 Finals

October 2020·vs vs Miami Heat

Davis hit the series-clinching three-pointer in Game 2 and dominated the 2020 Finals alongside LeBron. He averaged 25/10.7/3.5 blocks in the playoffs. In the COVID bubble — no home court, no fans — Davis proved he was the best two-way big man in basketball.

He won a ring in the strangest NBA season ever. No fans, no distractions, just basketball. Davis thrived.

The Trade Request — Forcing His Way to LA

January 2019·vs vs New Orleans Pelicans

Davis publicly demanded a trade from New Orleans and forced his way to the Lakers to play with LeBron. The Pelicans got a massive haul, but Davis got what he wanted — a ring in his first season in LA. The move defined the player empowerment era.

He wanted LeBron. He wanted LA. He wanted a ring. He got all three in Year 1.
