There are some celebrities whose teeth helped them in their careers. A good example is Steve Buscemi, whose teeth has helped him to portray his characters on-screen. Rappers are also known to keep bad teeth to look like the “real” deal. A good example is Danny Brown who just got his teeth fixed recently.

So, did Anthony Davis’ teeth do him any good? Well, let’s take look at some of the photos where Anthony Davis showed off his teeth to great effect.

Davis is from the South Side of Chicago. He attended the Perspectives Charter School during his high school days. He was known as the “little guy who would shoot threes from the corner”. Here is a shot of him playing and showing off his teeth. His teeth did not add to his game but did make him look goofy at times. 🙂

Here are a series of photos taken during his Kentucky days. He grew much bigger during his college days. En route to his current 6 feet 10 inches frame, he blew some of his competitors away on the basketball court.

Then he arrived in the NBA with the New Orleans Hornets. And he brought along his unique teeth set with him. His teeth look seriously bad. Don’t you think?

Overall, Davis’ lower set of teeth hardly get snapped by cameras. When he smiles, usually his upper teeth will show. His lower teeth are reserved for moments of pure aggression. Good teeth or bad teeth, there is no doubt that Anthony Davis is one of the best players in the NBA right now.
