On Davis' Instagram page, he wrote a long goodbye to the Los Angeles Lakers.
He closed it out by calling Dallas an exciting new chapter.
What they're saying:
LA-
6 years ago, I came here with the vision to win a Championship, and I will never forget the moment we did! The business of basketball is a business just like all other businesses… I am grateful to the city where my first ring came from, grew my family and friendships and I will always have a home here. My family and I thank everyone who made this place home and we are still thinking of those that lost their homes in the fires.
To my teammates: our friendships go beyond a locker room and a jersey…
LA will always have a special place in my heart.
Every great story has an exciting next chapter…
Dallas- Here we come!
