The Boston Celtics are undeterred by Anthony Davis Sr.'s comments regarding his son and a potential future with the Celtics, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Wojnarowski, during an in-game hit while the Celtics took on the New York Knicks, talked about Boston’s pursuit of Anthony Davis, as well as Kyrie Irving’s strange comments earlier in the day.

On Davis, Wojnarowski said Boston is aware that the campaign to get Davis to the Lakers will continue until at least the trade deadline, but the Celtics have communicated with the Pelicans that they plan to offer a generous package in the summer with their collection of young players and picks. Wojnarowski said the Pelicans have not received an offer from the Lakers (or anyone else) that would keep them from waiting until the spring.

Wojnarowski also said Irving’s comments earlier were not “optimal” for the Celtics, but that Boston has had ongoing conversations and an open dialogue with Irving, and they know they will be judged by Irving on their roster at the end of the season (which could include whether they deal for Davis).

Davis' father spoke to ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne prior to Celtics/Knicks and said he wouldn’t want his son to join the Celtics because of the way they traded Isaiah Thomas.

“I would never want my son to play for Boston after what they done to Isaiah Thomas,” Anthony Davis Sr. told ESPN. “No loyalty. Guy gives his heart and soul and they traded him.”

The Celtics have embarked on a risky path that could turn them into championship contenders. Davis' father’s comments -- particularly during an all-out media blitz by the Los Angeles Lakers -- aren’t likely to make them blink at this point.
