Anthony Davis puts in request for trade from New Orleans Pelicans

From the moment Anthony Davis signed with Klutch Sports, speculation began as to whether or not the franchise cornerstone would force his way out of New Orleans and into a bigger market or onto a better team.

Those fears were realized this morning in the form of a story posted by ESPN Basketball Insider Adrian Wojnarowski.

Per his column, Davis’ agent Rich Paul notified Dell Demps on Monday morning that his client was requesting a trade out of the franchise that drafted him seven years ago.

“Anthony wants to be traded to a team that allows him the chance to win consistently and compete for a championship,” Paul said.
