Davis began his junior basketball season at 6 feet 8 inches (2.03 m),
Davis verbally committed to Kentucky on August 13, 2010, choosing it over DePaul, Ohio State and Syracuse.[20][21] On August 24, 2010, he became the number one rated player in the national class of 2011 at Scout.com.[22]
Before Davis committed to Kentucky, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that his father had asked Kentucky for $200,000 in exchange for a commitment from Davis.[23] The report was initially released on Wednesday August 4, 2010 by Sun-Times reporter Michael O'Brien.[24] Citing "a reliable source", he posted the following text: "Rumors/sources that have Davis choosing Kentucky are also alleging that the commitment cost $200,000." The sentence was later edited to say "rumors that Davis's commitment is for sale have surfaced since he cut his list of schools down about a month ago." The sentence was removed later that day from the Sun-Times' high school sports website following a threat from a University of Kentucky lawyer.[25][26] Anthony Davis Sr. declined to speak to the Chicago Tribune on August 4 regarding the allegation; on July 30, however, he denied the allegations to the Sun-Times, stating, "We haven't asked anyone for anything, and no one has offered us anything".[25]
The article was reposted on the Sun-Times' website and included in the print edition on Friday August 6. O'Brien wrote "sources from three separate universities told the Sun-Times that Davis Sr. asked for money in return for his son's commitment, with the amounts ranging from $125,000 to $150,000."[24][27][28] The University of Kentucky and the Davis family both threatened to sue the Sun-Times over the article;[24][29] however, no lawsuits were filed by Kentucky or the Davis family. The Davises and Kentucky claim the restated publication was false.[30] Illinois' one-year statute of limitations on libel cases expired before any lawsuits were filed.[10]
Davis signed his National Letter of Intent on November 10, 2010.[17][31] He began his senior season on the Chicago Sun-Times area 2010 Top 50 list.[32] He was a pre-season first team all-state selection by the Sun-Times.[33] By that time, he stood at 6 feet 10 inches (2.08 m).[9][13] His team's game against Whitney M. Young Magnet High School was nationally televised on ESPNU.[34] Perspectives finished the season with a 6–19 record.[35] Despite his growth, Davis continued to perform aspects of the role of a guard during the season by bringing the ball up the court and shooting outside shots.[36] For the season, he averaged 32 points, 22 rebounds and 7 blocks.[20]
In high school, Davis earned numerous honors for his basketball abilities, including being named to the 2011
In the March 30, 2011 McDonald's All-American Game, in front of a hometown crowd at the United Center, Davis made his first five field goals on his way to a 14-point, 6-rebound, 2-steal and 4-block performance.[49][50] In the April 9 Nike Hoops Summit, Davis led the USA Basketball team to a 92–80 victory over the world team with a team-high 10 rebounds to go with 16 points and two blocks.[51][52] He was named co-MVP of the April 16 Jordan Brand Classic game after posting 29 points (on 13-for-15 shooting), 11 rebounds and four blocks in a losing effort.[53][54] Davis's 29 points was the second-highest point total in the first 10 years of the Jordan Brand Classic, following only LeBron James's 34-point performance.[54]

College career
Davis committed to the Kentucky Wildcats, coached by John Calipari. Before his college career began, he was being mentioned as the first overall selection in the 2012 NBA draft.[55][56][57] In late February Dick Vitale mentioned the possibility that Davis might complete the men's college basketball awards Grand Slam of National Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Freshman of the Year and the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming draft."[36] During the exhibition portion of the season for the 2011–12 Wildcats, Calipari described Davis as follows: "He's 6–10 with a 7–3 wingspan and he can shoot the 3 and dribble the ball and lead the break. . ."[58] Less than a month into the season, ESPN's Andy Katz described him similarly: "Davis offers a multitude of skills for the Wildcats with his ability to block shots, run the floor, score in the low post and face up to the basket."[59] Since Calipari had coached Marcus Camby, who was also a tall shot-blocker, Davis drew comparisons to Camby.[59] ESPN selected Davis as a preseason All-American along with teammate Terrence Jones.[60] Some sources, such as Blue Ribbon, selected Connecticut's Andre Drummond as the preseason Freshman/Newcomer of the Year ahead of Davis,[61][62] although Davis was the only freshman on the ESPN 10-man preseason team.[63] Davis only received one vote for the Associated Press preseason All-America team.[64]
"Anthony is a tremendous shot blocker with great size and length. He can make 3-pointers, dribble the ball and he can get up and down the court faster than some of our guards because of his long, looping strides. He's a different player than Marcus Camby, but he's physically ahead of where Marcus was to start his freshman season."
—Kentucky head coach John Calipari[20]
After most of the pre-conference schedule but before the 2011–12 Southeastern Conference men's basketball schedule, Davis's teammate, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, was mentioned as a possible Southeastern Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year.[65] However, after less than a month of Southeastern Conference play, Davis was not only being mentioned as conference player of the year, but also National Player of the Year.[66] By mid-February, he was considered a National Player of the Year front-runner with his primary competition coming from Thomas Robinson of Kansas.[67] As the season progressed, he continued to battle Robinson while developing a college level offensive game.[68][69] Davis averaged a double-double and 6.5 blocks in the two games (November 15, 2011 and April 2, 2012) they played against each other, both on neutral courts.[70] Davis led the Wildcats to a perfect 16–0 record in conference play en route to the SEC conference regular season championship.[71] Davis finished the year with averages of 14.2 points per game, 10.4 rebounds per game, 4.7 blocks per game and a field goal percentage of 62.3%.[72] The Wildcats entered the SEC Tournament as heavy favorites and defeated LSU and Florida before losing to the Vanderbilt Commodores in the championship game.[71] Despite the loss, the Wildcats earned the number one overall seed in the 2012 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.[73] In the Wildcats' six NCAA Tournament games, Davis averaged 15.2 points, 11.2 rebounds and 4.6 blocks per game, and led the team to its eighth NCAA championship.[74][75]

On February 21, in a win over the Detroit Pistons, Davis scored a franchise-record 59 points and pulled down 20 rebounds. The previous franchise record was 50 points by Jamal Mashburn exactly 13 years earlier against the Memphis Grizzlies. Davis joined Shaquille O'Neal and Chris Webber as the only NBA players with 50 points and 20 rebounds in a game since 1983.[242] Davis also became just the 20th player in NBA history to score at least 59 points in a game,[243] and became the youngest player in NBA history to score 59 points in a game, and the second youngest (behind Bob McAdoo) to record 50 points and 20 rebounds in a game. The 59 points was an NBA-wide season high at the time.[244] The total was not surpassed until the final night of the season when Kobe Bryant posted 60 in his final career game.[245] Davis posted a third 40-point game (40 points and 13 rebounds) on March 9 against the Charlotte Hornets.[246] On March 20, he was ruled out for the rest of the season with a left knee injury and a torn labrum in his left shoulder.[247][248] Upon being deactivated, Davis claimed that he had been playing through left shoulder pain since his rookie season.[249]

He was one block short of his first five-by-five. It was the first 50-point, 15-rebound, 5-assist, 5-steal performance in NBA history since steals became an officially recorded statistic in the 1973–74 season.[251] His 50-point night was the second highest scoring output of his career and was the most by any NBA player in a season opener since Michael Jordan scored 54 points in 1989.[252] Two days later, he had 45 points and 17 rebounds against the Golden State Warriors, becoming the first back-to-back-game 40-point scorer in Pelicans history (since the New Orleans Hornets creation in 2002).[253] On November 10, he scored 32 points against the Milwaukee Bucks, helping the Pelicans record their first win of the season after starting 0–8.[254] On November 19, Davis posted 38 points and 16 rebounds, including 11 of the Pelicans' final 16 in an overtime win against the Charlotte Hornets.

Injury-plagued seasons (2020–2022)
On December 3, 2020, Davis re-signed with the Lakers on a five-year, $190 million contract that included an early termination option prior to the fifth season in 2024–25.[331][332] For the 2020–21 season, he was sidelined for 30 games (February–April 2021), the longest absence of his career, due to right calf and heel issues.[333] In the opening round of the playoffs, the Lakers were up 2–1 in the series against the Phoenix Suns when Davis suffered a strained left groin in Game 4.

In basketball -crazy Chicago, it's nearly impossible for a potential big-time prospect to go unnoticed the first three years of high school. But by playing for Perspectives in the Public League's Blue-West division, and not playing club ball since eighth grade, 6–10 junior Anthony Davis has remained an unknown. Undiscovered by the litany of talent evaluators and college coaches who frequent Public League gyms, Davis is playing with Mean Streets and has quickly gained recognition on the club circuit. Syracuse offered Davis a scholarship this week and Bucknell, Cleveland State, DePaul and Xavier also have shown interest. In addition, Memphis stopped by Perspectives last week to meet Davis. . .Even with all the attention Davis has received, he will stay at Perspectives for his senior season. 'I've been [at Perspectives] since sixth grade,' Davis said. 'I stayed there for the academic program. I didn't want to leave my team.'
