The Anthony Davis trade saga is a little over a week in and the Lakers remain at the top of his list of preferred teams. The conversations between Los Angeles and the Pelicans have reportedly stalled with New Orleans's asking price a bit too steep. Los Angeles reportedly offered two first-rounders in addition to Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, Brandon Ingram, Kyle Kuzma, Ivica Zubac and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
