NBA Twitter roasts Lakers after Anthony Davis isn't traded at deadline

Share

The NBA trade deadline came and went Thursday afternoon and Anthony Davis is not a member of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The New Orleans Pelicans center was not traded before 3 p.m. ET, even though the Lakers reportedly tried to acquire him over the last few weeks. The Pelicans should have more trade partners for Davis in the offseason, most notably the Boston Celtics, who covet Davis but couldn't acquire him prior to the trade deadline due to a league rule.

The Lakers' swing and miss drew plenty of reactions on social media, many of whom were quite pleased with Thursday's developments. 

Here's a roundup of some of the best Twitter reaction to Davis remaining in New Orleans.
