NBA star Anthony Davis joins FaZe Clan's Nuke Squad
Los Angeles Lakers superstar Anthony Davis was in the news for his recent admission that he had not shot a basketball since the team's season ended in April. While that has changed in the past few days, with the All-Star power forward posting photos with private shooting coach Chris "Lethal Shooter" Matthews, that doesn't mean Davis hasn't found the time for other activities.
Last night, Davis tweeted out that he had joined Nuke Squad, a group of content creators within the esports organization FaZe Clan. Nuke Squad member FaZe Swagg confirmed the news, posting a photo of the NBA star wearing a Nuke Squad chain.
Partnerships between esports organizations and traditional celebrities have become increasingly common over the past few years. The organization that has been leading the charge is FaZe Clan, which operates both professional esports teams as well as a large content creation wing.
While 100 Thieves has popular rapper Drake as a co-owner, FaZe Clan has a host of rappers and athletes that have invested in the organization, including Offset, Swae Lee, Jamal Murray, and Josh Hart.
The organization can now also count NBA superstar Anthony Davis among its members after his latest announcement on Twitter claiming he had joined Nuke Squad, a part of FaZe Clan.
The Nuke Squad Twitter account also confirmed the news, welcoming the Los Angeles Lakers star into the fold. He is now listed on the account's bio as a member, right alongside Swagg, Booya, Santana, and JSmooth.
Nuke Squad is a group of four friends within FaZe Clan that made a name for themselves with their Call of Duty streams and content. They joined FaZe Clan in 2021 after going through six months of the organization's FaZe Academy program.
