Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Davis shared his enthusiasm about his unexpected trade to the Dallas Mavericks, which also involved Luka Dončić moving to the Los Angeles Lakers. The celebrated 10-time All-Star expressed particular excitement about playing with Irving, a topic they’ve discussed since 2018.
“It’s really thrilling. Back in 2018, when I requested a trade from New Orleans, I remember discussing this with [Irving], who was in Boston at the time before he moved to Brooklyn,” Davis recounted. “Playing together has been a long-held aspiration for both of us, and now, it’s finally becoming a reality.”

Now both in their early thirties, Davis at 31 and Irving at 32, they boast remarkably parallel careers in the NBA.

The duo is expected to create a powerful dynamic on the court, leveraging their combined skills for as long as they are teammates.
