Anthony Davis wore No. 23 on his shirt during his whole run with the New Orleans Pelicans, and when he got the Los Angeles Lakers, the arrangement was for him to keep wearing that favored number in purple and gold. The issue came down to stock. LeBron James was at that point wearing No. 23 at that point, and keeping in mind that he was able to change to No. 6 to oblige Davis, Nike had a huge inventory of No. 23 James pullovers that would have become outdated. James and Davis didn't give them enough notification before the 2019-20 season, so the association constrained James to stay with No. 23. Davis, accordingly, picked No. 3.
However, after the 2020-21 season finished, James declared he would change to No. 6, the number he wore in Miami. That opened up No. 23 for Davis in the event that he'd needed it, however he at last decided to wait. He made sense of why on a Jerk stream (h/t Harrison Faigen of Cinema and Roll). As indicated by Davis, "the arrangement is to have No. 3 hanging in the rafters."
Regardless of whether Davis never plays one more game for the Lakers, he has proactively achieved sufficient wearing No. 3 to see that number resigned. He was a First-Group All-NBA player in a title group in No. 3, so Davis probably calculates that there's not a glaringly obvious explanation to switch things around. In the event that he doesn't come out on top for one more title with the Lakers, the subsequent number will show up completely pointless.
