Anthony Davis has requested a trade from N.O. Update: AD to Lakers for Lonzo, Ingram, Hart & 3 picks

[Flex Luger]

He's not getting that from anyone

Looks like he still aiming high. Think he'll settle for something right in the middle.

 

[horizon]

why would either of those two teams participate if they weren't getting AD back?

its going to be more like - Ingram, Kuzma, 4th pick, 6/7th pick (with Lonzo going to PHX/Chicago)

You've never heard of a 3-team trade? Why would WASHINGTON have any expectations of AD coming back?

And if Ingram's involved, of course the Lakers would be getting AD in return

so explain to me why the Wizards are giving up Beal to help facilitate an AD deal to the Lakers

Washington is rebuilding and they'd be helping form a superteam in the opposite conference so what the fukk do they care about the Lakers getting AD, it won't affect them at all

Griffin has offered teams no firm timetable on needing a completed deal, but he has indicated that he prefers the acquisition of 2019 draft picks be completed days prior to the June 20 event, in Brooklyn, league sources said. This gives the Pelicans a chance to meet and more closely examine draft candidates slotted in the vicinity of picks potentially traded to New Orleans.

The Knicks and Lakers hold the Nos. 3 and 4 picks in this month's draft, respectively, and those are prime trade assets for the Pelicans to consider.

Griffin is pursuing a combination of assets that include an All-Star player, a young player with All-Star potential and two first-round picks, league sources said. Those wants are on a sliding scale. For example, the better the player, the softer the asks on the draft picks -- and vice versa.

That's certainly a starting place in trade talks, but there remains uncertainty on how many assets teams will be willing to move for Davis, who could leave as a free agent next July.

In whatever deal the Pelicans make, Griffin wants the assets to continue building a Western Conference playoff team around guard Jrue Holiday and the projected No. 1 overall pick, forward Zion Williamson, sources said.

For now, a Davis trade looms as a premium free agent recruiting tool for those big market teams engaged with New Orleans. For example, Brooklyn and New York are pursuing Davis to partner with the likes of a Kevin Durant or Kyrie Irving once free agency commences on June 30.

Sounds a lot like Beal, Ingram, and picks to me

What is Washington getting back in this scenario?

 

[#1 pick]

To me this is Boston. Tatum and Horford for AD

Nothing of value which is why it is not happening

I think Boston is out with Kyrie likely leaving. They cant trade what future they have left only for AD to leave them next summer

What is Washington getting back in this scenario?

Could be Lonzo, Kuzma, and #4

 

[ALonelyDad]

None of the teams involved have an all star .


Boston told pels to hold on and are now not even offering. Boston wins easily if they enter
