Anthony Davis: I Don't Think Lakers Plan On Trading Me

In an interview with Dave McMenamin of ESPN, Anthony Davis responded to speculation that the Los Angeles Lakers could explore trading him this offseason.

"I can't control those things," Davis told ESPN after the Lakers loss to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, which eliminated L.A. from play-in tournament contention. "That's an upstairs thing. A Klutch, Rich Paul thing. My agency.

"I mean, my job is to go out and play basketball. Obviously I love it in L.A. If that's something that they're considering, then we'll have a conversation about it. I don't know what they're talking about, what's the plan."

Davis has no inclination that the Lakers could trade him, but he is aware how the league works.

"I mean, I don't think they're planning on doing anything [with me]," he said. "I don't know, man. F---, I don't know."

Davis is aware of how his injury history has hampered his resume.

is aware how his injury history is the only major wart on an otherwise sterling professional resume.

"My job is to be on the basketball floor and play games," Davis said. "When I'm healthy, I'm a motherf---er. But I got to stay healthy. "Unfortunately it was two injuries I couldn't control this year but I'll be back at it next year and see what happens."
