Dale Davis has not reported to the New Orleans Hornets and his  agents James Wells has told The San Francisco Chronicle that he is seeking a buy out.

Wells said he was in negotiations with the Hornets for a release and expected a resolution this weekend. Davis would like to join a playoff contender, and he would need to sign with a team by March 1 to be included on its playoff roster. Though Wells declined to name interested teams, a league source said the likeliest destinations are Indiana, Detroit and San Antonio.
