No, this is not from The Onion.

quote:

Appearing on the red carpet in Chicago before the start of the Celebrity and Rising Stars games Friday, Davis made it clear (through his publicist) he was interested in talking only about his new flavor of Ruffles potato chips. After being handed a bag of Ruffles lime-and-jalapeno-flavored chips on the red carpet, Davis was left hanging when no reporters asked him about his signature chips.


This is from the Los Angeles Times.

His publicist told all reporters he would only talk about Ruffles. No one asked any questions.

L.A. Times Sports ? @latimessports Anthony Davis is walking the red carpet at the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. His publicist said he would only answer questions about Ruffles from us. We had no potato chip-related questions for him.

Is this publicist the same one that picks out his T-shirt’s?

I remember Pels Talk posters whining about why Davis didn't have a signature shoe and wasn't a bigger star racking up the endorsements.

He still has no charisma + he has terrible people coaching him up. Hope Ruffles didn't pay him too much.

Jesus that's so cringe worthy.

I just imagine 75 reporters around Zion and Tony D standing 10 feet away, all alone with his bag of chips asking Rich Paul why people still don't care about him

“But Zion plays for the Pelicans. I don’t get it?”

Probably jammed a finger eating them. Heard he's going to the locker room to get it x-ray'd and he's questionable to return.

The guy can’t stay out of his own way.

He's the guy at the bumping party who is playing a video game on his phone all alone in the corner.

AD was and never will be as marketable as an athlete as he believes in his head.

Anthony Davis is unintelligent. Brilliant at basketball but he’s a soft minded unibrowed dweeb who grew 7 inches taller in one summer.

Lime and jalapeño flavored? I would’ve figured his signature flavor would be “extra salty”.

Or bag of dicks

Zion endorsing 180k dollar cars while AD is out here trying to pimp a 3 dollar bag of chips.

Well, maybe Zion could ask AD for advice on engine oil

I full believe there’s a 12 year old trapped in AD’s body



What a cringe worthy fricking thing to do.

I mean, Frito Lay isn’t Mercedes Benz in terms of brand value, but it’s pretty high up there. Right next to Netflix & ahead of car companies like Chevy & ford.
