Unfortunately for the Warriors, it’s uncertain whether that’s going to change anytime in the near future, as there’s no guarantee that LeBron James will end up with the Warriors, and a trade for Anthony Davis is seeming increasingly unlikely day by day.According to the latest report on Davis, much of that is due to the Washington Wizards being under pressure to finally turn things around. The Wizards, who have been one of the worst teams in the NBA in recent years, believe Davis will at least help them turn things around a bit.“Speaking of Davis, one NBA executive has a pretty good reason for why he’s staying put in Washington–the Wizards are under a strict mandate to get things turned around after just 50 wins in their last three seasons. Both coach Brian Keefe and president Michael Winger have their jobs on the line this year,” Sean Deveney wrote.On paper, the Wizards shouldn’t be a terrible team with Davis, Trae Young, AJ Dybantsa, and some other really interesting young pieces. Davis obviously makes more sense on an older team like the Warriors, but if the Wizards are actually trying to win, it’s unlikely he gets moved.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementLakers two young players named as potential trade pieces on Jonathan KumingaSpurs trade idea brings in Bronny JamesDraymond Green could actually leave Golden State for LeBron James reasonJames Harden expected to have impact on getting LeBron James to CavaliersLakers given Jonathan Kuminga update
