Warriors again tied to Anthony Davis in latest rumor roundup

Golden State would take on Anthony Davis from Washington, per Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, though the Warriors have told Jimmy Butler he is not being traded and are wary of a four-year, $212 million extension for Davis.

Yahoo Sports reports LeBron James' free agency has stalled because he wants his team to land either Davis or Kyrie Irving, and neither Washington nor Dallas wants to move them.

Elsewhere, Denver is holding Cam Johnson partly as an expiring contract ahead of Nikola Jokic's projected four-year, $280 million deal next summer, Charlotte has interest in Max Strus and Dennis Schroder, and Milwaukee is shopping Kyle Kuzma's expiring $20 million deal while weighing Myles Turner's three years and $83 million.
