It took very little time for the Lakers and Anthony Davis to agree to a contract extension. On the same day he was officially extension-eligible, the two sides agreed to a max contract extension.
Ultimately, there’s very little to deliberate on Davis’ part when the Lakers offer the max. But on the Lakers side, there was perhaps some internal deliberation given his history of struggling to stay on the court.
However, in speaking to Mark Medina of Sportskeeda, Klutch Sports CEO, and agent of Davis, Rich Paul says the Lakers never expressed any worry about Davis’ injuries in recent seasons.
