Personal life
Jackson-Davis is the biological son of Dale Davis (former Indiana Pacers power forward/center). However, he was raised by his mother and his stepfather, former NFL running back Raymond Jackson.[33] Originally, Jackson-Davis just went by the last name of Davis; however, entering his freshman year of high school, he decided to hyphenate his last name and add "Jackson". He stated, "When I got to high school, I didn't think it was fair. Ray raised me my whole life, so I did Jackson-Davis. They both want the best out of me, but I would say they do it at different angles."[34] Jackson-Davis has a sister, Arielle Bellian (née Jackson), and two brothers. His brother Shaun played basketball in Europe and for the Harlem Globetrotters;[1] his younger brother Tayven Jackson was a high school teammate at Center Grove, and went on to play quarterback in college for the University of Tennessee for one year before transferring to Indiana University.
On March 15, 2019, Jackson-Davis was honored as the Indiana Gatorade Player of the Year. He received the award not only for his athletic abilities, but also for his academic discipline in maintaining a B average, and his exemplary character in which he volunteered locally as a youth basketball coach and at the Wheeler Mission Center in Indianapolis, serving the homeless and those in need.[3]
