Davis Confident He'll Playing With Brand
Newly acquired point guard Baron Davis claims that he is confident he'll be playing alongside forward Elton Brand this season, according to The Los Angeles Times.
"It means a lot for a kid growing up in the Los Angeles area and to be playing for the Clippers and playing in Southern California because it gives them hope," Davis said. "I want to inspire young kids in the community."
He took a pay cut, agreeing to a five-year, $65 million with the Clippers, after turning down $17.8 million to play for Golden State next season.
He then expressed his confidence in playing alongside Brand.
"I cant wait to have an opportunity to play with one of the best big men in the game and one of the best underrated big men in the game," Davis said. "It's really a big reason why I wanted to do it. Just having somebody I can give the ball to and make plays."
"I'm not worried," Davis added. "He has to make the decision that's best for him and we all have to respect that. But it would be great to have him with the Clippers. To have him on the court, the possibilities are endless to be able to win a championship."
