After months of attempting to trade for Anthony Davis the Lakers finally got him.
Weeks after the Pelicans opened negotiations with the Lakers, both teams agreed to trade that includes several players and several draft picks.
The Pelicans have agreed to a deal to trade Anthony Davis to the Lakers for Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, and three first-round picks – including the No. 4 overall in 2019 Draft, league sources tell ESPN.

The Internet went nuts with the trade and mocked LaVar Ball after Lonzo got shipped off to New Orleans.

Lebron, Anthony Davis and Kyle Kuzma can compete for the title. Las Vegas has them as a favorite (still feels like they need another shooter) The Pelicans will be a blast to watch and strong for years. Like the deal for both.
