Warriors get new timeline on Anthony Davis trade, and it favors everyone involved originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
As the Golden State Warriors approach the remainder of the offseason, and with the expectation that LeBron James won't end up in Golden State, the biggest focus continues to be on what Anthony Davis' future might look like in Washington with the Wizards.
As Davis looks to suit up for the Wizards in the next few months, there's hope and expectation that Washington will be a much better team than it typically is. However, if the Wizards struggle, it's now believed he could be moved before next year's trade deadline.
“Anthony Davis, Wizards. (Remaining contract: two years, $121 million, including player option.) Davis has been the subject of much speculation this offseason, but around the league, there isn’t a sense he is going to be dealt. The Wizards would like to get Davis on the floor and see if he can help them compete for a playoff spot. If not, he could be dealt by the February trade deadline,” Sean Deveney wrote.
While the Warriors would likely love to get Davis right now so they can have a full season of him playing above-average basketball, it's also not the worst outcome if he were to get traded at next year's deadline.
The reason is that Golden State would then have an opportunity to determine whether it is a contender, and at that point it might not even need him on the roster.
