A supermax offer will not be a factor in whether Anthony Davis' re-signs with the New Orleans Pelicans. 

The Pelicans are expected to offer Davis a five-year, $239.5 million supermax extension this summer. Davis would make an extra $87.3 million if he re-signed with the Pelicans. 

But with LeBron James' recent comments about wanting to play with Davis and the approaching February 7th trade deadline, there is growing momentum for the Lakers to attempt to make a move for the Pelicans superstar now.
