Baron Davis leaves Warriors

 

Baron Davis is no longer a Warrior, as he opted for terminating his contract with Golden State taking advantage of an early-termination clause.

Now the question is, where will be Davis heading now? Lets consider that he just walked away from the-almost $18 million remaining for the last year on his contract.

Since most teams are hands-tied due to salary cap, the Clippers seems to be the only team who is able to hire the services of the 29 point guard at the moment, and for that, they will have to let go Elton Brand and Corey Maggette whom are also looking to opt out of their contracts, and so if that happens, it will create a space for David to sign a good deal with LA. A deal that will round the $60 million dollars for 5 years.

The Warriors knew that Davis wasn’t going to be happy when he asked for an extension, as the LA native was asking a mega-deal last summer, and Golden State simply couldn’t pleased him at the time. Well, the Warriors knew that Baron Davis wasn’t going to deliver as he did the past 3 years he was part of the team, but Davis is truly confident of his talent, and that is why he wanted out.

So if Baron Davis leaves the Warriors, Monta Ellis is surely to take over on Davis’s duties, plus Ellis is 7 years younger and has more time to progress with his basketball.

Don’t be surprised if Baron Davis wears an LA Clippers shirt real soon.
