Report: Anthony Davis Will Wait to Accept Lakers Deal After Thanksgiving

Anthony Davis plans to stay with the Lakers but does not intend to sign a contract immediately, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Discussions between his agent, Rich Paul, and Lakers management can begin Friday night as the NBA's free agency is set to start at 6 p.m. ET. Specifics about Davis's contract length and structure will not be rushed, as Davis plans to wait until after Thanksgiving to commit to a deal.

The All-Star forward is considering many scenarios as the Lakers look to cement his contract. One deal includes a three-year, $106 million option which aligns with LeBron's timeline with the team.
