The NBA world buzzed on Monday when a potential LeBron James-Anthony Davis reunion in Golden State emerged.
After Draymond Green opted out of his $27.7 million contract, speculations became rampant that James and AD could take their talents to the Bay Area to team up with Stephen Curry and eventually Green.
Just one day into free agency on Tuesday, things are turning out to be more complicated than many predicted. The Warriors’ reported pursuit of Davis isn’t as simple as it seemed.
The first reported obstacle in the speculated James-Davis signing with the Warriors came from NBA insider Brian Windhorst hours before free agency opened. Windhorst said on “Get Up” that the “Warriors told Jimmy Butler they’re not trading him.”
Butler’s $56.8 million contract is the easiest match to Davis’ $58.5 million deal for a trade to happen.
