Jordan Davis also recently launched a talk show series on YouTube called “Do I Know You?” in February 2023 in which she shared that her goal is to become a successful talk show host. “I study hosts very carefully because it’s my craft, it’s what I wanna be really excellent at,” she spilled.
4. Jordan Davis’ YouTube Show Is About Growing Up the Sibling of a Famous Athlete & She Speaks to Other Celebrities’ Children or Siblings
Jordan Davis launched her new series, “Do I Know You?” early in 2023. Her series is focused on growing up the sibling or child of a celebrity and the impact it’s had on her search for identity. In her introductory video, she said, “My brother is Draymond Green, he plays in the NBA, Golden State Warriors.”
She said, “I love my brother so much, I love all my family so much.” Later, she said she and Green are similar in the passion that they have for what they love. “For him, it’s basketball, for me it’s this talk show,” she shared.
Jordan Davis said she’s 22 years old and just graduated college and she wanted to speak with other siblings or children of celebrities to find out about their own unique identities. She shared that she was always more interested in theater and drama than sports and pointed out in one episode that she felt the school she attended was very focused on basketball, which made her experience feel more intense.
She added that she’s found that people often have preconceived notions about her before they even meet her. “I’ve realized that when people learn who my brother is, they automatically before I even walk in a room, they just think I’m gonna walk in and cross them up or ask them to play horse or dunk on them,” she shared.

While speaking with her sister Gabby Davis in an episode, the talk show host said she normally doesn’t post much about her brother on social media. She said she wants to share photos of all her siblings when they have accomplishments, like LaToya Babers or Green, but she sometimes feels like she has to hold back to avoid getting judged by others.
