The Lakers are not optimistic they’ll have Anthony Davis on their roster this season.

New Orleans general manager Dell Demps and Los Angeles president Magic Johnson have not spoken Wednesday about a deal for the 25-year-old star, according to a report from ESPN, which cites unidentified league sources.

The Lakers are now “low on hope” they’ll acquire Davis before the Feb. 7 trade deadline, the report says.

Los Angeles has reportedly made multiple offers to the Pelicans for Davis and its latest proposal included two first-round picks, along with multiple players. The teams’ talks reportedly stalled earlier this week as the Lakers waited for New Orleans to make a counter offer.

Davis will not sign an extension with New Orleans and wants to be traded, agent Rich Paul told ESPN in late January. The Celtics have reportedly urged New Orleans to hold off moving Davis until this summer when they can trade for him. Boston cannot deal for Davis during the season because of the "Rose Rule.”

Davis would prefer to be sent to the Lakers or Knicks, according to a report from the New York Times. He would also consider signing a long-term extension with the Clippers and Bucks, that report says.
