Getty Will Anthony Davis join LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers?
The theory of Anthony Davis being traded for Brandon Ingram is continually being discussed!

“Any deal for AD, obviously, is going to have to include Brandon Ingram as the principle player being shipped out,” says source…. (1 of 2)
Bleacher Report’s Eric Pincus reports that a league executive indicates that that line of thinking is possible:
“I think they wait until the summer to look into a big move involving a player like Ingram,” an NBA agent told Pincus. “That gives them more time to get the best deal.”
An NBA executive agreed, calling Ingram the “1-A in a package for a big-time player [after the season],” suggesting names like Bradley Beal of the Washington Wizards or CJ McCollum of the Portland Trail Blazers for Los Angeles. “[Josh] Hart or [Kyle] Kuzma would probably need to be the 1-B.”
Also Per Pincus’ source:
“[Ingram] will probably be traded at some point, whether it’s for a second or third star,” another NBA front-office executive said.
