For a wealthy — and thanks to his new contract extension, starting next season VERY wealthy — young man, Anthony Davis has lived a relatively frugal life. He’s not extravagant and flashy, not a lot of jewelry or ostentatious suits. No wild spending for him.
Well, except TNT’s Ernie Johnson called him on one thing at the NBA 2K16 launch event in New York Monday.

Ernie Johnson: "Didn't you buy a monkey? "
Davis: "Uh yeah. I guess I did "
Yes, it’s true. Apparently Davis is channeling his inner Ross from the early episodes of “Friends” — he’s got a monkey.
Anthony Davis' marmoset. Yes, AD has a pet marmoset & someone to carry it. Yes, that's a tiny diaper. #145milatwork pic.twitter.com/a7oEcc8zKf
