“You know we talk about Kyrie [Irving] as far as how gifted. AD is even probably more gifted than Kyrie in the sense of you add seven-eight more inches of height. His ability to dribble, shoot, three pointers. mid-range, low post. His defensive prowess is uncanny,” James said.

James and Davis enjoyed a tremendous season together as teammates. They completed their championship quest as early as their first season together, and the talented athletes are hungry for more!
