Per Yahoo’s Chris Haynes, the New York Knicks (and the Los Angeles Lakers) are preparing to make an offer for Anthony Davis, who requested a trade from the New Orleans Pelicans Monday. No timetable was given for a trade, but Davis is signed through 2019-20.
To acquire someone of this caliber, it will take assets the Knicks probably will not want to part with. That includes draft picks and young players deemed part of this slow-build “developmental” future.
A handful of these pieces exist on the current roster, but will New York give up whatever it takes to gain another superstar?
