Anthony Davis' request to be traded from the Pelicans has come with a price.

The NBA has fined Davis $50,000 for his agent, Rich Paul, going public with his trade request.

Davis requested the trade Monday, and there reportedly are multiple teams currently in the running to acquire the big man before the Feb. 7 trade deadline including the Lakers and Knicks. If the Celtics are to land the superstar big man, they will need to wait until this summer unless they trade Kyrie Irving, due to the Rose rule.
