Anthony Davis says Nike told him to kick rocks when it came to getting the #23 jersey from LeBron James … saying the footwear giant said, “We don’t care who you guys are, it’s too much money!”
Davis says in a dinner date only a few days after he was traded from the Pelicans to the Lakers … LeBron offered him his famous #23 jersey as a “Welcome to L.A.” gift.
The problem? AD said on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” this week, Nike told him it would cost the company WAY TOO MUCH CASH … and said the jersey swap ain’t happening.
Davis was clearly bothered by the whole ordeal, saying, “I was a little hurt.”
But, AD says his solution to the problem was simple … fire up NBA 2K and try on other jersey numbers!!
Davis says he eventually landed on #3 because it looked nice … and it was also the digit he rocked when he first started hoopin’ in elementary school.
