Anthony Davis Believes Lakers Were ‘Really, Really Close’ To Signing Kawhi Leonard

LeBron James and Anthony Davis are arguably the most talented duo in the NBA today, but that duo was almost a Big 3 in 2019 NBA free agency.

The Los Angeles Lakers went full force in trying to sign Kawhi Leonard but he ultimately chose to join the Los Angeles Clippers instead.

The move has served to reignite the Lakers-Clippers rivalry to a level higher than it has ever been. However, the fact remains that until Leonard made his decision, many were wondering what would happen if the Lakers were able to produce a Big 3 of James, Leonard, and Davis.
