Hornets waive Dale Davis


March 1, 2005

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The New Orleans Hornets waived Dale Davis on Tuesday, clearing the way for him to join a team seeking a veteran forward for the playoffs.

The Indiana Pacers and Detroit Pistons are among teams that have expressed interest in acquiring the 35-year-old forward, who has averaged 8.5 points and 8.2 rebounds during his 15-year career.

Davis came to the Hornets along with Speedy Claxton shortly before last week's trading deadline in a deal that sent point guard Baron Davis to Golden State.

But the Hornets never expected Dale Davis, whose contract expires after paying him $10.1 million this season, to report to New Orleans.

So NO effectively traded Baron for Speedy straight up. Can't complain about that if you are a GS Warriors fan.

Im sure Dale Davis isn't upset he didn't want to be there...i heard somewhere he was trying to get out of there

Vecsey on NBATV said he's on his way to Indy. Now they have the Bangers in Foster, Pollard & the thug Davis.
