Pistons’ Reported Offer for Anthony Davis Surfaces
Reports have emerged that the Detroit Pistons have made a serious trade proposal to the Dallas Mavericks for Anthony Davis. According to the details that circulated, Detroit is willing to include multiple roster pieces plus draft compensation to try to land the veteran big man.
What Detroit allegedly put on the table
The package reportedly centers on guard Jaden Ivey and forward Tobias Harris, who is on an expiring $26.6 million contract. In addition to those two, Detroit would send another rotation player and some draft capital to Dallas. The idea would be to combine a young backcourt piece, an expiring salary, and future picks to make the numbers and the roster fit.
Why Dallas might consider a deal — and what’s next
The Mavericks appear to be shifting toward a rebuild and are prioritizing long-term pieces; one name frequently mentioned as a focus is Cooper Flagg. Dallas has also reportedly made several players available, which signals they are open to major roster changes. From Detroit’s side, the Pistons — sitting high in the East standings — have the assets to assemble a competitive offer.
At this point it’s all in the rumor stage: teams will talk, offers will be adjusted, and the situation could evolve quickly. If both clubs find common ground, we could see serious negotiations before the next trade deadline or around the offseason, otherwise the talks may fizzle and the status quo remains.
