Anthony Davis On Waiving $6M Trade Kicker: Trying To Help The Mavs Get Better
Anthony Davis waived his $6 million trade kicker as part of his trade from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks. In waiving the trade kicker, Davis gave the Mavericks added flexibility to improve their roster at the trade deadline. Nico Harrison and the Mavericks likely need to address backcourt shot creation following the trade of Luka Doncic. "Trying to help the team," said Davis when asked about his decision. "Obviously, you always want to get better and losing a monumental piece like Luka ... it's a lot, right? So I'm just trying to do my part and help Nico and the organization on how we can continuously get better." Davis is currently out with an abdominal injury. "I was shocked," Davis said of the trade. "Like I said, I didn't know. I was at home and about to watch a movie with my wife."
