Wizards’ Anthony Davis disputes ‘unhappy’ reports after Washington trade

Anthony Davis has a message for the skeptics: he’s happy, he’s healthy, and he’s ready to revitalize the Washington Wizards. After a whirlwind trade deadline deal that sent shockwaves through the league, the 10-time All-Star touched down in D.C. to tour his new home.

Davis wasted no time disputing reports that he was “unhappy” about the move from the Dallas Mavericks. In a video message to the fans, a smiling Davis expressed his excitement, noting he was already touring the arena and facilities.

"So excited to be here. Can't wait to get started."

The trade itself was a monster eight-player swap. The Washington Wizards sent Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham, and Marvin Bagley III to the Mavericks, along with a haul of draft picks.

In return, the Wizards secured Davis and a trio of guards in D’Angelo Russell, Jaden Hardy, and Dante Exum. While some critics questioned Dallas trading the centerpiece of their Luka Doncic deal from a year ago, Washington is betting big on a Davis-Trae Young pairing.
