Anthony Davis was drafted by the New Orleans Pelicans, not the Hornets, as it states in his bio. 140.232.175.90 (talk) 01:00, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done:. It was still the New Orleans Hornets that time when he was drafted. VictorTorres2002 (talk) 04:13, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Grand Slam[edit]

I see no reason why we can't refer to Davis' feat of winning an NCAA/NBA/Olympic/FIBA title as a Grand Slam.

It isn't original research, as FIBA itself coined the term.

Prior consensus at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Archive_40#Anthony_Davis_Grand_Slam, in which you also participated, was to not include.—Bagumba (talk) 23:06, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I barely remember what I had for breakfast, much less a Wiki discussion from 2 years ago. Vjmlhds (talk) 23:48, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
