At his introductory news conference today in New Orleans, new Pelicans GM David Griffin said he has spoken with Anthony Davis’ agent, Rich Paul, and he thinks Davis leaving isn’t completely a done deal.
That’s news to everyone else in the world, probably including AD.
Griffin says he’s committed to convincing Anthony Davis this is a place where he can win

Griffin says he believes AD is open to staying after discussions with Rich Paul. But he would prefer to establish if Davis is all-in or all-out on being with the Pelicans

Griffin says he hasn’t talked to Anthony Davis yet but plans to in the future. He has spoken to Jrue Holiday and a few other players

Griffin says he has not talked with Anthony Davis directly as of yet. Has spoken with Rich Paul. There is a set time for him and AD to speak coming up soon.

Griffin explained that he spoke to Davis’ agent Rich Paul and said Davis has to be “all in” if he wants the Pelicans to keep him.
If not, there is a strong chance he’ll be dealt.
I think he’s already burned every bridge he had in New Orleans.
But we will see.
