The Lakers are reportedly ‘pessimistic’ that they can deal for Anthony Davis before the NBA trade deadline

In case you haven’t heard, the Los Angeles Lakers are doing everything they can to complete a trade for New Orleans Pelicans superstar Anthony Davis before the NBA trade deadline.

Davis has asked out, and made it clear by only including the Lakers and teams that don’t have the assets to do a deal for him on his list of “preferred” trade destinations that he truly wants to end up in Los Angeles.

For the Lakers’ part, they’ve pushed all their chips into the middle of the table, reportedly offering a package that includes Lonzo Ball, Kyle Kuzma, Brandon Ingram, Rajon Rondo, Lance Stephenson, Michael Beasley and two first round picks for Davis.
