Mavs Stand Firm as Rich Paul Pushes for Anthony Davis Trade

Rich Paul is pushing for Anthony Davis to be traded before the February 5 trade deadline, aiming for a team that would sign him to an extension. Dallas, whose next steps depend on Davis’s health and the standings, says it won’t trade AD just to make a deal and will seek a return that includes draft compensation, young talent, and salary relief. Club ownership and leadership are said to be unconcerned about deadline pressure, and it remains unclear whether AD will be dealt or stay with Dallas this season or beyond.

"Unforeseen Impact: Golden State Warriors' Last-Minute Trade Shakes Up NBA Landscape"

The Golden State Warriors made a last-minute trade, sending Cory Joseph to the Indiana Pacers for a second-round pick, which opens up a roster spot likely to be filled by guard Lester Quinones. Converting Quinones to a standard contract instead of Joseph will save the franchise millions in luxury tax payments. While Quinones has shown promise, the team may still seek a veteran addition from the buyout market to bolster their playoff hopes, with Spencer Dinwiddie being a high-profile option.

"Boston Celtics Eyeing Two Bench Players Before Trade Deadline"

The Boston Celtics are rumored to be actively seeking bench enhancements before the NBA trade deadline, with Otto Porter Jr. and Lonnie Walker emerging as potential targets.
