Anthony Davis was most definitely the biggest trade target in the NBA this season. And last Saturday, the now-former New Orleans Pelican exited the market. The Los Angeles Lakers sent Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, and three draft picks (including this year’s No. 4 overall) to New Orleans for Davis. Now, Davis and LeBron James will team up en route to a title next season.
The New York Knicks were another team that seemed in contention to trade for Davis until it was reported that they actually backed off their pursuit.
