"The Washington Wizards are acquiring Anthony Davis in an eight-player trade with the Mavericks that includes draft picks for Dallas, a person with knowledge of the deal said Wednesday. The move is a signal the Mavericks are moving on from the widely criticized trade that sent superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for a package headlined by Davis last year."
"Former general manager Nico Harrison, who was fired by Dallas in November, engineered the middle-of-the-night deal that angered fans. Trade speculation had surrounded Davis ever since Harrison was let go following a slow start to the season. The Wizards are sending Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham and Marvin Bagley III to the Mavericks along with two first-round draft picks and three second-rounders, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal had yet to be approved by the NBA."

Former general manager Nico Harrison engineered that middle-of-the-night trade and was fired by Dallas in November. Trade speculation had surrounded Davis since Harrison's departure following a slow start to the season. Washington will send Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham and Marvin Bagley III to Dallas along with two first-round picks and three second-rounders. The Wizards will receive guards Jaden Hardy, D'Angelo Russell and Dante Exum as part of the deal.
