When Luka Don\u010di\u0107 was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> for Anthony Davis, the whole world was left speechless. Now that about a year has passed, it is safe to say that the Lakers won that trade.<\/p>\n

As of December 12, 2025, Davis has played just 19 games with the Dallas Mavericks<\/a>. He has dealt with multiple injuries, which is nothing new for the 6-foot-10 big man. His time with Dallas may be nearing an end if he can\u2019t get back on the court, which means he may be traded.<\/p>\n

A player of Davis\u2019 caliber would require a massive haul, and ESPN believes<\/a> he may be traded to the Golden State Warriors<\/a> to team up with Stephen Curry.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough Golden State continues to play at a high level with Green on the court, he’s shooting 38% from the field, his lowest mark since his rookie season — worse even than 2019-20, when Curry played just five games during what became a gap year,\u201d ESPN’s Kevin Pelton said Thursday, \u201cDavis would be the rim threat as a roll man the Warriors have long sought. They could also save money this season by structuring this as a multiteam deal, sending Hield to a third team. In this case, he goes to the rival Lakers to supply the shooting threat they need.\u201d<\/p>\n

In this case, Davis and Mason Plumlee join the Warriors, the Mavericks acquire Draymond Green, Jonathan Kuminga, and the Warriors’ 2026 first-round pick, the Los Angeles Lakers obtain Buddy Hield, and the Charlotte Hornets<\/a> receive Maxi Kleber and Dalton Knecht.<\/p>\n

A duo of Curry and Davis would be impossible for teams to defend, no matter their age, and with Jimmy Butler as the third option, they may have a real shot at a championship.<\/p>\n

Kuminga has always been a question mark for the team and even received a DNP recently. If it means giving up a team legend in Draymond to go for one last championship, then Davis may be a future Warrior.<\/p>\n
