Since Anthony Davis requested a trade on Monday morning, the Los Angeles Lakers have been heavily linked with making an offer for the Pelicans star. Nevertheless, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting while the Pelicans will consider all offers that they receive for Davis, the organization is in no rush to complete a trade:

The New Orleans Pelicans plan to listen to offers on All-NBA center Anthony Davis but won't make a deal before next Thursday's NBA trade deadline unless they're offered an overwhelming package for the franchise's star, league sources told ESPN.

Davis is contracted to the Pelicans until 2020, although the 25-year-old has made it clear that he won't extend his contract. So far this season, Davis has averaged 29.3 points, 13.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game, although he has missed the Pelicans last five games through injury.
