In the recent months, reports have surfaced of multiple teams inquiring about the availability of New Orleans Pelicans Superstar Anthony Davis. Though it would cost a fortune and then some for NOLA to part ways with their franchise player, nothing can be written off as impossible. After all, the leagues coined catchphrase is “NBA: Where Amazing Happens.”

So, a few NBA teams are rumored to be interested in trading for Anthony Davis. What else is new? He’s one of the best talents the league has to offer, at a position so few organizations possess a quality player, let alone a star. The calls may soon be coming to Dell Demps and NOLA’s front office. However, should they pick-up?

Is this me insinuating the Pelicans should seriously consider trading away Anthony Davis? Of course not! However, minus the exception of LeBron James, there is a price tag on everyone. Though we here at Pelican Debrief hope to see AD finish out his career in the land of Po Boys, we must seriously consider the question; how much would it take for New Orleans to pull the trigger on a trade?

In the following slides we will discuss realistic trade packages for Anthony Davis and whether or not New Orleans should consider them. Some of the packages have already been discussed in the media, others will be fresh takes of our own. It would take a lot for an organization to land the five time All-Star. Now, lets look into exactly how much “a lot” is.
