As rumors have surrounded Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis<\/a> regarding certain teams that have been speculated to pursue the big man, the latest reporting suggests that a few teams are likely out of the picture. While rumors around\u00a0Davis will undoubtedly continue<\/a> throughout the season, potentially until the trade deadline, the status of the Detroit Pistons<\/a> and the Toronto Raptors<\/a> is given more context.<\/p>\n

ClutchPoints’ NBA insider Brett Siegel would speak to fellow reporter of the outlet, Tomer Azarly, on the show \u201cClutch Scoops,\u201d as they talked about Davis and how he’s being viewed by certain teams. Siegel would say that Detroit is \u201cnot a team that is all in\u201d on Davis, and as for Toronto, while there’s been interest, the franchise is going more for a \u201ccost-effective path.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThere is still nothing brewing on the front from the Pistons even though they\u2019ve been mentioned,\u201d Siegel said. \u201cThey\u2019re not a team that is all in for Anthony Davis at this time. They still haven\u2019t held direct discussions with the Mavericks. And another team that has registered interest in Davis, the Toronto Raptors, it seems like they\u2019re going to be moving in another more cost-effective path instead of pursuing Davis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anthony Davis is also connected to the Hawks, Warriors\"DallasJerome Miron-Imagn Images<\/p>\n

One team that seems to be in the quest for Davis is the Atlanta Hawks<\/a>, a franchise that Siegel mentioned is the \u201ctop-tier main suitor\u201d for the 32-year-old star. Siegel would also bring up the popular destination in the Golden State Warriors, though he mentioned that the talk around them \u201chave been a little bit exaggerated.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo that really leaves the Atlanta Hawks as that top-tier main suitor that wants to be going after AD,\u201d Siegel said. \u201cThere\u2019s really no other team that has reached out to the Mavericks at this point. Obviously, there\u2019s rumors about the Golden State Warriors getting in the mix for Anthony Davis. We\u2019ve heard that a lot over the last few years that they\u2019ve had a lot of interest in a player like AD and the type of player that he is, but those rumors about the Warriors pursuing him over the next five weeks have been a little bit exaggerated. It doesn\u2019t seem like there is anything really brewing there.\u201d<\/p>\n

It remains to be seen where Davis gets dealt and if it’ll be ahead of the trade deadline on Feb. 5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As rumors have surrounded Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis regarding certain teams that have been speculated to pursue…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":470831,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3773],"tags":[495,7,296,188,3860,6,6050,1540,297,476],"class_list":{"0":"post-509543","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-detroit-pistons","8":"tag-anthony-davis","9":"tag-basketball","10":"tag-detroit","11":"tag-detroit-pistons","12":"tag-detroitpistons","13":"tag-nba","14":"tag-nba-rumors","15":"tag-nba-stories","16":"tag-pistons","17":"tag-toronto-raptors"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115819099217358083","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=509543"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509543\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/470831"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=509543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=509543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=509543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
