NBA trade rumors usually don’t start percolating until the weeks leading up to the mid-February deadline. Yet that hasn’t stopped some early churning when it comes to Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans, with some whispers indicating that he could be in play for the Boston Celtics.
In the early weeks of his fifth season in the NBA, Davis is reinforcing why he was the top selection in the 2012 NBA Draft. He’s again averaging a double-double while also leading the league in blocked shots.
