The NBA star is a father of three who keeps his kids’ lives very private
The busy Los Angeles Lakers star, 30, was doing interviews during All-Star weekend with the younger of his two sons happily perched on his lap. The toddler looked around, pulling on Dad’s jersey for a moment as he spoke. The father of three was unphased and continued undeterred.
Davis and wife Marlen Polanco Davis also share another son, both of whose names and ages have been kept private. The two also share daughter Nala, 6.
Anthony and Marlen welcomed a third baby in the summer of 2022, which the NBA star confirmed during a Spectrum News interview in September 2022. Asked what his favorite part of the summer was, Anthony answered with a smile. “Adding another to the family,” he said, confirming it was a “little boy.”
“A girl and two boys now, so I got a team,” he added. “I’m outnumbered now, we’re outnumbered now. Amazing, blessed kids are a blessing, so I’m happy to have three of them.”
In Marlen’s private Instagram bio, she has the initials of her children listed: “NAD ❤️ JAD ❤️ KAD.”
Nala was also her father’s date to the Los Angeles premiere of Space Jam: A New Legacy at the Regal LA Live & 4DX theater in July 2021. She held a stuffed Bugs Bunny and posed on the purple carpet with her dad, who voiced himself (a.k.a. The Brow) in the animated film.
“I hadn’t really thought about [doing anything Hollywood-related]; basketball is my focus. Obviously [though], me and LeBron are very close, and he asked if I wanted to be in a movie with him,” he told Haute Living in 2019. “I felt like it was a cool opportunity for me, being that Space Jam is one of my favorite movies, so I jumped on board.”
