Kevin Garnett calls the approach to the Anthony Davis trade request ‘unprofessional’

Kevin Garnett criticized the way New Orleans Pelicans superstar Anthony Davis’s agent, Rich Paul of Klutch Sports, has handled Davis’s trade request.

“This was a bit unprofessional, to be honest,” Garnett said on TNT before Saturday night’s All-Star festivities.

Garnett said he doesn’t like how agents are dictating the action, and he doesn’t believe this was the proper approach or the right timing.

Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry called the whole situation a dumpster fire, and Garnett echoed a similar sentiment.

“It’s not my taking,” Garnett said. ” … I don’t like the way this process has come out.
