The ongoing Anthony Davis trade rumors during the 2018-19 NBA season practically derailed both the Los Angeles Lakers and New Orleans Pelicans.
While a trade was finally agreed upon sending Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, and draft picks for Davis, last season was still a lost one.
It was clear throughout the season that the Lakers were affected by the trade rumors as no one knew who would stick around and who would stay. Nearly every person on the roster came up in the media as possibilities to be moved and every day seemed to bring something new.
