Full Anthony Davis Transaction Reaction
Los Angeles Lakers: C/F Anthony Davis
New Orleans Pelicans: PG Lonzo Ball, F Brandon Ingram, SG Josh Hart, 2019 4th Overall Pick, 2021 1st Rd Pick (Top-8 Protected; unprotected in ’22), 2024 1st Rd pick (Unprotected), Right to Swap 2023 1st Rd Picks (Unprotected), & Right to Swap 2025 1st Rd Picks (Unprotected)
After publicly requesting a trade a few weeks before the mid-season trade deadline, Anthony Davis finally got his wish and is headed to his No.1 destination. He joins LeBron to form the NBA’s most fearsome duo on the new Championship favorites now. He’ll leave behind a team that now has great building blocks in place to become a legit contender in the 2020’s.
Bottom line: Both teams benefit from this transaction and it could stand as the key catalyst for both of these teams achieving the ultimate goal.
