New [URL=”http://www.nationofblue.com/watch-anthony-davis-work-5003/”]Anthony Davis videos[/URL] are popping up everywhere. This time, it’s a brief video of the photo shoot for Anthony Davis from Slam Magazine. Slam Online did a [URL=”http://www.slamonline.com/online/the-magazine/features/2010/12/hell-of-a-life/”]story[/URL] on Davis in December that talked about Davis, the negative rumors and his explosion onto the college recruiting scene.

Here is an excerpt from the story:
“As a rookie to the recruiting game, it just kind of shocked us that someone would do that,” Davis says of the anonymous allegations that his family demanded a six-digit payoff for his commitment. “We knew it wasn’t true, so it didn’t really un-focus me. I just learned that you really can’t trust no one on the recruiting scene. You’ve just got to keep a tight circle.”
Davis figures he’s done that, relying on his family to deflect the negativity, and expanding his circle only as far as friends in the game who can relate to the process. In that, he’s got good company, particularly with a trio of his future UK teammates, all of whom will likely be McDonald’s All-Americans at season’s end. “I talked to Michael Gilchrist a lot, and when I realized Marquis Teague and Kyle Wiltjer were coming too, that was just a bonus,” Davis says of the months leading up to his decision.
