Hornets say they're not dealing Davis
Associated Press
Will the Hornets be Baron's team, or a barren one without him?
With New Orleans switching from the Eastern to the Western Conference for
the upcoming season, Baron Davis and his agent are seeking a trade, USA
Today reported Friday on its Web site.
The Hornets will be in the realigned Southwest Division of the Western
Conference with San Antonio, Houston, Dallas and Memphis, teams that all
made the playoffs last season. The Hornets were a playoff team in the
Eastern Conference, but were eliminated in the first round.
"After talking with Baron and evaluating what the Hornets organization
has been doing this offseason, I'm concerned with Baron's current status
and his future with the team," Davis' agent, Todd Ramasar, told the paper.
"Baron was really disappointed with them losing the first round of the
playoffs. I want to put him in the position where he can contend for a
title or at least be in a position where he can reach the NBA Finals."
Ramasar said the New York Knicks, Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Lakers and
Miami Heat are potential teams where Davis can thrive, USA Today reported.
Hornets general manager Allan Bristow says dealing Davis, who signed a
six-year, $85 million contract last year, isn't an option.
"We've got to straighten out some things," Bristow told USA Today.
"He's our franchise player. There's no possibility we'll trade him.
We have no intention of even inquiring about trading Baron."
