What happened

A recent Anthony Davis prank sent Draymond Green into orbit.

Why it matters

The Mavericks star played the gag on his NBA colleague as part of his new “Foul Play with Anthony Davis” show, and the bit was so believable, Green almost socked a man over it all.

Common ground

Davis, with the help of LeBron James and Rich Paul, lured Green into a fake meeting about an investment opportunity, and initially, the Warriors forward was calm and cool as actors told him about a wild venture involving mall psychics.

Perspective signals
