Anthony Davis Trade Update Makes NBA World Paranoid: ?Knicks Get AD?

The Los Angeles Lakers have failed to deliver on the expectations they set when they moved heaven and earth to acquire Anthony Davis from the Pelicans in 2019. Though the duo of LeBron James and Davis brought a title to Hollywood after a decade, they have not been the same since. Amidst another disappointing season, the Lakers may have finally decided to ship Davis out of town.

Besides the championship run in 2020, Davis’ stay in LA has not been all a bed of roses. Moreover, the All-star forward might soon be on the trade block again. Fans always have the ‘perfect’ trade theory lined up for whenever trade rumors break out. The current occasion is no exception.
