According to CNBC, former University of Kentucky standout and top NBA Draft pick Anthony Davis is not getting rid of his trademark unibrow anytime soon. Why? Because Davis is actually trademarking his signature look, even though unibrows are um…complete fashion don'ts in the Western Hemisphere.

CNBC reports that the phrases "Fear the Brow" and "Raise the Brow" have been trademarked by Davis. As ridiculous as that sounds, it may actually be kind of smart, as Davis is destined to make a significant amount of money as the top star of this year's NBA Draft.

“I don’t want anyone to try to grow a unibrow because of me and then try to make money off of it,” Davis said to CNBC. “Me and my family decided to trademark it because it’s very unique.” Anthony Davis is definitely unique, especially when it comes to basketball ability, fashion sense, and learning how to market his image. Although it's hard to believe people would've actually tried to grow unibrows…

There are times to be proud of your individuality or quirks, and times where you just have to realize you're weird beyond comprehension and should maybe consider doing something about it. This unibrow falls into the latter category. Besides, how is he going to trademark it? He's not the first, nor will he be the last unfortunately, to have a unibrow.

I think its genius. He's already notorious for the 'brow. Might as well make it into something positive. Kinda like the saying about life and lemons...

He doesn't want people to grow one because of him and make money? Please explain to me how growing out my unibrow would make me money, because I would love to know.

Wait, so nobody else can grow one, or nobody else can advertise and make money off of one? Either way it's dumb, you don't own the citizens of America. Same thing with Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

Anthony, you're so silly and ugly all in one. I wager $1000 he'll go bankrupt within 5 years of retirement. Have fun while it lasts i guess.

I'm just not fond of the way everyone who makes a catchphrase decides to trademark it these days. But is he also trademarking the unibrow itself? Because I don't think you can trademark a physical characteristic that occurs naturally...

how can you trade mark a physical characteristic that many other people have? He is one of the ugliest men to grace this earth, he has massive nostrils, massive lips, gross teeth, and a uni-brow.

Of course its silly but at the same time it was his trademark look like it or not. "Fear The Brow" was heavily promoted all over the place in their run for the national title.
When he was in the Hotel lobby for the tournament he even had a six year old bow to him while saying "Fear The Brow" it was hilarious and he was a good sport about it.

Why not trademark it? And if you look close at the pic you'll notice that it's actually a mole that gives him his unibrow look for the most part.
