AD Trade Buzz: Pistons & Bulls Eye Davis
22 Nov
Summary
- Detroit Pistons are reportedly showing interest in trading for Anthony Davis.
- Anthony Davis has appeared in only five games this season due to injuries.
- ESPN reports Bulls and Rockets are also potential trade destinations for Davis.
Trade rumors surrounding Anthony Davis continue to swirl, with the Detroit Pistons reportedly expressing significant interest. This speculation follows the recent dismissal of Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison. Despite team owner Mark Cuban's assertion that Davis is not available for trade, reports from NBA insiders suggest otherwise, indicating Dallas is considering offers.
Davis has had a difficult season, playing in only five games due to injuries, which has contributed to the Mavericks' struggling 4-12 record. Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons are enjoying a dominant start to the 2025-26 NBA season, leading the Eastern Conference with a 13-2 record. Kendrick Perkins highlighted Detroit's interest, while ESPN noted the Chicago Bulls as another potential destination, with the team having substantial expiring salary cap space.
However, analysts like Zach Lowe have questioned the fit for teams like the Pistons and Houston Rockets, suggesting their needs lie elsewhere, such as shooting or backcourt playmaking, rather than acquiring Davis. The speculation highlights Davis's uncertain future despite his championship pedigree.
