The rise of social media and podcasts has connected fans to their favorite public figures in a way that hasn’t existed before.
Many athletes interact with their fans on social media, which has helped revolutionize the fan experience.
Podcasts have also helped showcase more of player’s off-court or off-field personalities, as they share stories and experiences from their time in professional sports.
This was put on full display with Anthony Davis’ recent appearance on the “Join the Lobby” podcast, as shared by a fan on Twitter.
Davis talked about Patrick Beverley being the funniest player in the league, saying, “He don’t try to be funny, he be serious, but the stuff he says is funny.”

Davis and Beverley developed a great rapport together on the Los Angeles Lakers, and Beverley has made a big impact on Davis.
Davis’ comments are an indication that, while players are united for a common goal of winning games, they also take time to enjoy each other’s company.
Making off-court bonds can help an on-court relationship get stronger, and these two have played well together as teammates.
While Davis spent a lot of time talking about Beverley and what he brings to the table as a teammate and friend, the Lakers have a lot on their minds heading into the 2024-2025 season.
They are still looking for a new head coach, and are hoping to add the necessary pieces to their roster to be as competitive as they can next year.
There has been a conversation about the team making some big moves, so it will be interesting to see if those come to fruition.
