In a move that shook the basketball world yet again, Anthony Davis has been traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Washington Wizards, just a year after his sensational swap for Luka Doncic. The drama of the NBA continues as the Wizards welcomed Davis alongside teammates D’Angelo Russell, Dante Exum, and Jaden Hardy. Meanwhile, Dallas is set to receive Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham, Marvin Bagley, and an impressive haul of draft picks in return.
Davis made quite an impression during his short time with the Mavericks, averaging over 20 points a game. However, it seems the Mavericks are ready for a change as they shake up their roster in hopes of finding the right mix. The trade coincides almost perfectly with the one-year anniversary of Davis's arrival in Dallas, leaving fans to wonder if they'll ever look back at that move with any sense of nostalgia. You have to hand it to the NBA: just when you think you've seen it all, they throw in another plot twist!
