Cavs Rumors

Here’s How Anthony Davis Trade Between Lakers and Pelicans Could Impact Cavs

The NBA offseason got off to a bang on Saturday when the Los Angeles Lakers finally completed a deal for All-Star big man Anthony Davis.

The trade included the Lakers parting ways with Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, future draft picks, and this year’s No. 4 overall pick.

The Cavs of course possess the No. 5 pick, and shortly after the trade, one report described how the trade might impact the Cavs.

Whether the report is saying that the Cavs are interested in moving up one spot or if other teams around the league want to jump the Cav, is somewhat unclear.

What is clear is that the trade market leading up the 2019 NBA Draft is likely to heat up quite a bit before the big day arrives.
