David Griffin hasn't given up on the possibility of retaining Anthony Davis with the New Orleans Pelicans long-term.
The Pelicans presumably received a boost on that possibility by winning the lottery, but early reports indicated that Davis still wanted a trade from the Pelicans.
The Pelicans can offer Davis a supermax contract this offseason.
Griffin plans to meet with Davis in Los Angeles when agencies host predraft workouts.
“We’re very confident that we have a compelling situation for him here,” said Griffin.
