Anthony Davis and LaMarcus Aldridge are both respected power forward/center in the NBA. Both are also an All-Star on his own right. But both are also on the trading rumors for the past few months. Though the San Antonio Spurs and New Orleans Pelicans deny the rumors that they are trading their star players, many still believe that both players are not putting impressive number for their teams.
Aldridge has previously been linked to being traded to the Phoenix Suns, Washington Wizards, and Detroit Piston while Davis has the Boston Celtics and Chicago Bulls as his suitors. But all of those rumors did not happen up to this moment. Since both are in rumor mills, many say why not the Spurs and Pelican try to explore a deal for both players.
According to ChattSportNet, after producing big numbers in three games, Davis still failed his team to get the W and could be asking for a trade to the San Antonio Spurs for Aldridge. The report also says that Davis felt that there's too much load to carry the production of the team and no one seems to be helping him in that area.
After 3 games, the Pelicans are still a zero win even Davis has a monstrous average of 37.7 points, 12.3 rebounds and 3.0 blocks per game. And this seems to be pushing Davis to be frustrated for not getting the wins despite all of his efforts in a game. And carrying too much burden might also result to reemerge of his past health issues as per stated in the report.
On the separate report by Ecumenical News, since Davis was selected in the 2012 NBA draft as the #1 overall pick by the New Orleans Hornets, he continues to improve and made his own name in the league. He's been selected as an All-Star for three consecutive years from 2014-2016 but despite that recognition Davis only lead the team in the playoffs once during the 2014-15 season.
Though the season is still too early to predict what will happen, Davis and the Pelicans still hopes that they can still turn their fortunes around. But if ever their season turns not good, then this could be the last season for Davis in a Pelicans uniform.
Will the New Orleans Pelicans release Anthony Davis to the San Antonio Spurs for LaMarcus Aldridge?
