The media speculation and hype surrounding the recent comments of the former New Orleans Pelicans superstar big man (currently with the Los Angeles Lakers) Anthony Davis as to his thoughts on his hometown, aren’t all that shocking. Any time a big superstar name is mentioned in a reunion headline with a big market franchise like the Chicago Bulls or the Lakers, the media and NBA fans will jump all over it.
That’s exactly what happened with AD in this scenario.
Throughout the offseason, AD fielded questions on his feelings about the Pelicans and where he wanted to be traded.
