Let the Anthony Davis trade sweepstakes begin. Davis’ agent, Rich Paul, confirmed to multiple news outlets Monday what has been rumored for months — that his client, a soon-to-be six-time All-Star, won’t sign an extension with the Pelicans and wants to be traded to a championship-contending team. This just in: Davis’ hometown Bulls don’t meet that qualification. And if the Pelicans move to honor Davis’ request before the Feb. 7 trade deadline, the Bulls’ chances to bring home the local star would be based on a huge dice roll. You can’t win the May 14 draft lottery before Feb. 7, can you? The Bulls, if they enter the Davis sweepstakes, would have to offer a likely package of some combination of Lauri Markkanen, Wendell Carter Jr., Zach LaVine and at least their 2019 first-round pick without assurances Davis would re-sign after the 2019-20 season. Again, it’s a huge dice roll.

This is right, stampedehero. Would be fantastic. But if it is right that he already said that he don't like to be a Bull then the chances are very very slim. Sad.
