New Orleans Pelicans Owner Releases Groundbreaking Statement About Anthony Davis’ Future

New Orleans Pelicans owner Gayle Benson is ready for the big challenge coming his way. Anthony Davis may leave the team any time now, and the team will have to play without one of the star players.

“I really like Anthony. But if he wants to leave, you can’t hold him back,” the Pelicans owner said.

Benson is well aware of the fact that he cannot force Davis to stay on the team long-term. However, the team is also ready to do the best they can to help Davis make a decision and stick around for a while. “We’re going to invest more money and get the big players and do everything we can to keep Anthony here. I really like what we have in place,” Benson said.

NBA execs believe that Davis will join the Los Angeles lakers or Boston Celtics inthe offseason, as confirmed by a report from Bleacher Report. The Pelicans can give Davis a lot of money, and maybe even more than other teams, but Davis is interested in legacy.

“I’d take legacy over money. I want to have a legacy. All my people that look up to me, the younger kids, I want them to know about AD’s legacy. Championships, the things I do in the community, being a good teammate, playing hard. All that stuff matters the most to me. Don’t get me wrong, money is amazing. But I think in that sense, money or legacy, I think my legacy will win that battle every time,” he said of his career plans.

There is a growing conversation around Davis and his next home. However, the star is focused on the Pelicans and their game at the moment. Let’s see if the team is ready to give everything to keep him in town for a little bit longer.
